The Premier League club are emerging as a possible new destination for Manchester City’s Kalvin Phillips

Kalvin Phillips could be given another opportunity to rebuild his career as a top-flight player in the Premier League, a new report has revealed.

The 28-year-old continues to go through a challenging time in his professional playing career, struggling for consistent game time following his departure from Leeds United in the 2022 summer transfer window.

Despite enormous success on the silverware front with Manchester City during that time, Phillips played a very minimal role in outings and was given the opportunity to secure consistent playing time on loan at West Ham.

However, the second half of the last campaign was largely a continuation of his experiences with Manchester City, as the England international found himself on the receiving end of individual errors and injury which cut short his time at the London Stadium.

With Leeds failing to reach the Premier League for next season after defeat in the Championship play-off final, many were left concerned about what might be next for Kalvin Phillips. However, there could still be hope for a future in the Premier League.

Phillips’ struggles last season culminated in him being left out of Gareth Southgate’s England international squad for the upcoming European Championships in Germany, and his path back to the Three Lions could be even more complicated.

Manchester United midfielder Kobbie Mainoo operates in a very similar position to Phillips and his outstanding season with the Red Devils has earned him a call-up to the Germany squad this summer.

Elsewhere, Adam Wharton’s meteoric rise from Blackburn to Oliver Glasner’s Crystal Palace has also seen the versatile central midfielder rise in Gareth Southgate’s Euro plans, alongside mainstays Declan Rice and Jude Bellingham.
