Walker began his career in Algeciras CF, making his debut on 22 October 2006, against Ayamonte. He received his first start on 22 May 2007, against CD Mairena. He already had trials with Manchester United, Everton and Aston Villa as a teenager. In 2008 summer, after a short period at CD Quintanar del Rey, Walker joined Atlético Zabal (Real Balompédica Linense's farm team), but only appeared in eight matches (575 minutes overall), scoring six times. During the 2009–10 season, he was promoted to Linense's first team, but only made four appearances, all from the bench, 89 minutes overall, being later separated from the squad due to indiscipline problems. In January 2010, Walker signed with UD Los Barrios, and made his debut on the 31st, against Puerto Real CF. He scored his first goals on 27 April, against Sevilla FC C. In May 2010, Walker returned to Linense, getting more playing time than his last spell, appearing in 13 matches (849 minutes overall) and scoring once (against UD Los Palacios on 26 September). In January of the following year, Walker was loaned to CD San Roque, in the Spanish fifth division. In his first season, he only appeared six times and scored once, with his team being promoted to fourth division. In his second season, now with a permanent deal, he was the club's topscorer and best player of the season, scoring ten goals in 30 games (all starts).

He earned a starting spot in the 0–0 draw, played in Faro, Portugal. On 6 September 2016, Walker scored his first international goal as Gibraltar made their World Cup qualifying debut against Greece. Walker hit the net with a curling left-footed shot from just inside the box, levelling the score at 1–1 before his side eventually fell to a 1–4 defeat. This was Gibraltar's first competitive goal as a member of FIFA. Walker was named the FIFA Player of the Day following the match. Walker scored his second international goal on 25 March 2018, a deflected free-kick which proved decisive as Gibraltar beat Latvia 1–0 in a friendly, their first win on home soil since joining UEFA.
