According to reports, Kalvin Phillips is likely to leave Manchester City during the January transfer window.
WHAT HAPPENED? The Leeds academy graduate has been the subject of persistent rumours that he may leave the team, but a report from Fabrizio Romano suggests that a transfer may be close at hand.

THE BIGGER PICTURE: In 2022, Phillips came to the Etihad on a surge of momentum after securing his spot in England's starting lineup and playing in all seven of his country's games as Gareth Southgate's team advanced to the European Championships final.
