The England defender , 34, joined the Serie A giants after eight trophy-laden years with Manchester City. But, a new challenge in Italy is just the ticket for Walker in his twilight years. He made his debut against fierce rivals Inter in a draw last weekend, and followed that up with an impressive performance in the Coppa Italia win over Roma. Away from the pitch, Walker is enjoying his stay at the five-star Melia Milano hotel.
It's a minute journey to the training ground, while he's closer to the San Siro Stadium, which is a minute drive. Recently, he dined out at the exclusive Coraje restaurant - owned by a rival Inter Milan footballer.
While Walker is acclimatising to his new surroundings, he is staying at the five Melia Milano hotel in the city centre. If his six-month loan is a success, and the deal becomes permanent, expect him to splash the cash on a lavish place of his own. It is believed that AC Milan negotiated a deal for Walker to have a premium room at the hotel. The Italian club regularly house new arrivals there, when the player's arrive from foreign shores on loan.
While restaurants Hollywood and Crazy Pizza are close by - and firm favourites for Milan's stars and their Wags. Luckily for Walker, the Melia Milano is just an eight minute drive to the San Siro , where his club play their home games. The Milanello Sports Center is found on a metre high hill, some 31 miles away from the centre and close to the old town of Varese - famed for its art-nouveau villas.
Surrounded by a pine forest and pond, not only does it offer its players tranquility - there's state-of-the-art gyms, medical facilities and numerous pitches.
