Kyle Walker is living in an apartment block despite owning two mansions after being kicked out by his wife Annie Kilner following the Lauryn Goodman paternity scandal.
The Manchester City footballer, 34, was exposed earlier this year for fathering a second child with influencer Lauryn while married to Annie.
Annie booted him out of their £4million family mansion in Cheshire once the truth was exposed - leaving Kyle to take out a six month lease on accommodation.
But the lease has since run out and the sportsman has been forced to move into an apartment owned by his Premier League club, The Sun reported.
A source told MailOnline that Kyle is living between the apartment and his family home as he and Annie continue to work on their relationship.

The source said: 'Kyle is between homes at the moment as he only leased an apartment for six months when he and Annie separated in January.
'As the relationship is still being worked on he has taken the decision to split his time between both places, so as to be close to work and training whilst maintaining a relationship with his family.
'Annie, Kyle and the boys spent a fun summer together which helped them work through their troubles and kept things as normal as possible for their four boys. Kyle treated Annie to a gorgeous beach BBQ on her birthday and those special moments mean everything to them all.
'They continue to work on what their future looks like as a couple with their children at the forefront of their mind.'
The Sun's source said Kyle had 'nowhere else to go' so was forced to move into the club's apartments. They said he thought Annie would allow him to move back in.
Lauryn Goodman has leaked a series of messages she claims were sent to her from ex Kyle Walker in yet another alleged underhand tactic aimed at the footballer.
The mother-of-two, who was branded 'difficult, unreasonable and demanding' by a judge during her child maintenance battle with the England player, shared screengrabs of Snapchat exchanges she claims were with Kyle.
It emerged earlier this year that Kyle had secretly fathered two children with the influencer, son Kairo, four, and daughter Kinara, 12 months.

In the first screengrab, Lauryn shared a message stating: 'Because I want to see him growing just as much as u do. Not forgetting her but more k because of me seeing him and stuff [sic].'
Another message stated 'give them both a cuddle and kiss' and then 'miss him', with Lauryn adding the caption: 'My son hasn't formed the emotional connection he has with his dad from "4 times" and out of nowhere. If you keep coming for me I will keep dishing out the FACTS. Believe me I have a BOOK load.'
Lauryn also vowed to hit out at the 'narrative' surrounding her as being that of a 'gold digger, homewrecker, obsessive' and shared messages describing her as being a 'great mum', claiming Kyle was able to give his 'PR narrative' during their court battle over child custody payments.
Another exchange between pair saw messages from Lauryn that read: 'Ima live my life. With our kids. Doing what I want. You enjoy yours.'
A response read: 'If it's not this it that if it's not that it's money', with Lauryn replying: 'Bye. F**k your money. F**k you.'
The response to this was: ' Honestly it's mental Lauryn. Ur not that girl.'
Lauryn replied: 'I am a mum of two. Is what lam [sic].'
She captioned the post: 'So he knows I'm not that girl ... And he says I'm a good mum ... not that I need his approval because I'm a GREAT mum).'
MailOnline contacted Kyle's representatives for comment at the time.
The posts comes after it was claimed Kyle and his wife Annie Kilner are enraged at Lauryn dragging their private life through the public arena.
In July, Lauryn lost her child maintenance battle with the footballer after a series of tumultuous months.
In the first screengrab, Lauryn shared a message stating: 'Because I want to see him growing just as much as u do. Not forgetting her but more k because of me seeing him and stuff [sic]'
Another message sent to Lauryn on Snapchat stated 'give them both a cuddle'
Lauryn shared: 'My son hasn't formed the emotional connection he has with his dad from "4 times" and out of nowhere. If you keep coming for me I will keep dishing out the FACTS. Believe me I have a BOOK load'

A report in The Mirror has claimed Kyle and Annie are trying their best to move on with their lives and keep things private for their kids.
A source told the publication: 'Kyle and Annie don't see what Lauryn puts on social media but it's sometimes hard to avoid altogether seeing as it gets reported on and their friends and family mention it to them.
'They want to deal with things out of the public eye to protect the children involved.
'They've always lived a private life with their own kids and don't like the fact that they are all being dragged through this in such a public arena. It's nothing to do with hiding anyone just that this sort of thing is hugely damaging to children, especially those of school age.'
Last week Lauryn vowed that her children 'will always be her priority' as she officially announced her daughter's name.
Announcing her daughter's name on Instagram, Lauryn wrote: 'Another special moment taken away from me. I'd like to officially announce my daughters name.
'K•I•N•A•R•A & K•A•I•R•O @luxecastings really capturing every detail - I'm a lover of sentimental keepsakes 'A Goal Without A Plan Is Only A Dream. & 'After Every Storm Comes A Rainbow.'
'You are exactly that my beautiful little girl. My rainbow to still stand tall after we've all weathered this storm.
'One thing I can promise you is that you will always be MY priority. I will NEVER let either of you down. You both make me so proud and genuinely give me the greatest strength to keep going.'
It emerged earlier this year that Kyle had secretly fathered two children with the influencer, son Kairo, four, and daughter Kinara, 12 months (pictured last month)
It followed claims that Kyle wanted to bed Lauryn in a London hotel room, just days before he publicly said he 'regretted' their relationship, according to the influencer.
In an interview with The Sun on Sunday, Lauryn said the alleged incident happened on December 17, ten days after the pair had a family dispute hearing in London.
Sources close to the Manchester City star slammed her as 'a liar and a gold digger', saying he had to 'hold her off' as she was 'sexting him' and trying to destroy his life.
Speaking to the newspaper, she recalled: 'He messaged me saying it was a shame we hadn't met up afterwards because he had a room at the Rosewood Hotel.
'He told me I could have bedded him there. Does that sound like a man regretting a relationship? The only thing that man regrets is being caught.'
Kyle admitted he made 'idiot choices and idiot decisions' in an interview with The Sun in January, where he issued an apology to his wife Annie and called his fling with Lauryn a 'mistake'.
The England deputy captain was embroiled in a paternity scandal earlier this year when it emerged he had fathered a second child with influencer and model Lauryn.
But sources close to the Sheffield defender have blasted any suggestion that he had wanted a 'booty call' at the hotel, where prices start at £897-a-night - after the family dispute hearing.
They told MailOnline: 'He was trying to hold her off. Annie was pregnant and he didn't want her to find out about Kinara so he was trying to keep Lauryn at arms length.
'They did exchange texts, but Kyle had absolutely no intention of meeting her at the hotel he had stayed in. Hence mentioning he was there ten days after the actual event. Anything said during that time was to stop the detonator going off. It was not a booty call'.
'He should not have written it but he was trying to stop her from detonating his life. He did not want to meet up with her.'
Speaking to the tabloid, the influencer described Kyle as a man who wanted to 'have his cake and eat it' and rather than being the 'gold digger' she has been portrayed as, she is simply trying to do right by their children.
She said: 'I do grow tired of all the criticism sometimes, but I don't regret fighting to financially protect my children from an errant father.'
Last month, an extraordinary court judgement saw Lauryn accused of using Kyle as an 'open ended cheque book and of having 'repeatedly threatened him in order to get what she wanted'.
Lauryn added that while her recent court hearing had painted her as someone with an 'insatiable greed and relentless pursuit of money', she maintained that she is financially solvent through her job as an influencer and regular appearances on TV shows.
Following Lauryn's interview, a source close to Kyle denied the hotel room claims and told MailOnline: 'Kyle never had a relationship with the children.
'This has been made clear in court and isn't something that the judge questioned. It was always financial.
'Everyone around her can't believe that she doesn't just get on with her own life and enjoy her children, she seems to have an axe to grind - and this is clear with her obsession with Annie which stretched all the way to asking Kyle and Annie's neighbour to record them in their private garden.
'She will go to any lengths to destroy Kyle and Annie as she didn't get what she wanted.
'It's sad that she continues to monetise the media and give exclusives when she has so much; hopefully one day she will find forge a career that doesn't depend on using the Walker name.'
A second source added: 'How can she position him as a deadbeat dad when he didn't want children with her and yet he is paying – and has been paying – to keep them in a very good lifestyle?
'The reason that he does not have a relationship with Kairo and Kinara is because she has made it impossible for him to have any relationship.
'It is clear from her actions that as soon as he sees them it will all be made public and he doesn't want that.
'She is using the children in the media endlessly and ruthlessly but he will not do that.'
