Sunderland supporter Hughes said: "Each week Kyle and I are going to kick back and talk football.

"We'll tell stories of the beautiful game, dig through Kyle's footballing journey and find out what it takes to win."

Walker, 34, becomes the latest football star to launch a podcast.

Ex-England international Peter Crouch has an award-winning show which he co-hosts with radio presenter Chris Stark and Steve Sidwell.

Troy Deeney and Jermain Defoe also share a BBC podcast revealing all about life as a Premier League player.

Walker - who has just welcomed his newborn son Rezon into the world - launched the pod ahead of England's Euro 2024 campaign.

The full-back has been a regular in Gareth Southgate's squad in the 2018 and 2022 World Cups as well as the delayed Euros in 2021.

But he will not be joined by long-time international team-mate Marcus Rashford and Jordan Henderson, who were omitted by Southgate.

Walker told Sky Sports: “If the gaffer thinks it’s the right squad to pick, I believe and I fully trust in what he does.

"He’s been fantastic since the minute he has walked through the door.

“Obviously when you have shared such great moments with the likes of Marcus and Hendo and been on a journey together you do feel a little bit sad they are not going to be there.

“But the manager thinks that’s the best thing for the country and I am fully behind him and fully back him in that.”
