Kyle Walker has been named captain for Manchester City's pre-season fixture against Bayern Munich despite the German champions' pursuit of the defender this summer.
Pep Guardiola's side continue their preparations for the new season against the Bavarian giants at the Japan National Stadium in Tokyo on Wednesday.
And Walker, who has only a year remaining on his contract at the Etihad, is set to lead out the Citizens.
