Manchester United considers a surprising January move for Manchester City’s Kalvin Phillips, who is currently out of favor in the midfield.
“After Pep Guardiola’s decision to sideline Kalvin Phillips at Manchester City, the England international is poised to leave in the January transfer window.
Recent reports suggest that Manchester United is closely watching Phillips’ situation and might make a surprising move for the English star.
Kalvin Phillips might be loaned out in January with a potential permanent move in the summer. Erik ten Hag, expressing interest in the player, aims to secure the deal ahead of competitors like Newcastle, who are also eyeing the midfielder.
The 28-year-old has made only one start for Guardiola’s side this season, featuring in just eight matches across all competitions and spending a mere 215 minutes on the pitch.
Manchester United is looking to strengthen its midfield in the upcoming transfer window. Sofyan Amrabat’s loan move, intended to enhance the squad, has not met expectations.
Additionally, the club is contemplating the sale of Casemiro and Christian Eriksen, both of whom have received offers from Saudi Arabia. The pursuit of Kalvin Phillips from Manchester City is part of United’s efforts to address midfield concerns.
