In January, Kalvin Phillips is anticipated to quit Manchester City after losing favor under Pep Guardiola.
iNews covers this topic.
What is currently happening with Kalvin Phillips at Manchester City? Let’s look into it.
After receiving a red card in the 2-0 victory over Nottingham Forest, Rodri was suspended for three matches, thus the England international was hoping to make the starting lineup.
On the other side, Guardiola started Rico Lewis and Mateo Kovacic instead of Phillips and Mateo Kovacic in Sunday’s 1-0 loss to Arsenal and Wolves, respectively, in the Carabao Cup.
The Manchester City No. 4 is reportedly getting closer to leaving the Etihad Stadium in January, according iNews.
When Guardiola was willing to sell, Phillips is rumored to have given Manchester City some serious attention in the summer.
The £160,000 weekly earner, however, decided to remain because he felt it would be premature to end his career at the Etihad Stadium after just one season.
In contrast, Phillips is scheduled to depart in January even though Rodri is still a reserve player.
The 27-year-old joined Manchester City from Leeds United in June 2022 for £45 million, although he has only started two Premier League games.
If Kalvin Phillips leaves Manchester City, where he might wind up
It’s interesting to note that a couple potential locations for Phillips have previously been mentioned.
According to an iNews report, Newcastle and Everton are apparently interested in the Leeds-born midfielder.
The Toffees reportedly thought about a loan agreement in the summer but lacked the finances to close it.
West Ham, Liverpool, and Bayern Munich all shown interest in signing Phillips during the summer transfer window; as a result, these three teams could face competition from Newcastle and Everton for his services in winter.
Keep an eye on the situation because 2024 is a very unpredictable year.
