Wins three tackles against New York Walkes took a shot on target, made three clearances and won three of four tackles in Sunday's Decision Day defeat against the Red Bulls.
Impact Walkes kept four clean sheets in 23 MLS appearances (21 starts) this season, and he was a mainstay in the XI from the start of June through the end of the campaign. The 25-year-old looks set to continue as a first-choice center-back in 2023, ready to partner either Adilson Malanda or Guzman Corujo once he returns from a torn ACL.

Makes three clearances Walkes registered three clearances, two interceptions and two block in Saturday's 4-0 victory over Philadelphia Union.

He has been on a superb run of late with 10 clearances, four tackles (three won) and seven blocks in the last five matches.

Getting minutes on back line Walkes has started back-to-back matches, supplying three tackles and 10 clearances.
Impact Out of necessity, Walkes has started two-straight matches after playing just 50 minutes total prior to this run. Once Christian Fuchs is healthy he'll likely return to his bench role. It's been a tough transition for Walkes, who started 32 matches at Atlanta last season.
