Liverpool eyeing move for Manchester City midfielder Kalvin Phillips
Liverpool are reportedly strategizing to acquire the services of Kalvin Phillips, a midfielder currently on the outskirts of Manchester City’s favor.
During the summer of 2022, Phillips formalized his association with Manchester City, the reigning champions of the Premier League. This contractual commitment, spanning six years, was initiated with a considerable payment of £42 million. The agreement also holds provisions for potential supplementary payments, with the upper limit reaching an impressive £45 million.
Within the confines of Manchester City’s lineup, Phillips managed to participate in a mere dozen matches. His standing within the realm of football, as quantified by Transfermarkt.com, currently places his market value at 32 million euros. It’s worth highlighting that Phillips also made appearances on behalf of his national team, England, totaling 27 games, and even succeeded in finding the back of the net once.
Regrettably, Phillips’ entry into Manchester City last summer failed to yield any noteworthy impact. His presence within the team has remained rather inconspicuous, and he has struggled to carve out a significant role.
World Football Rumours
Given his minimal contribution to the team’s triumphant run in the preceding season, Phillips has found himself in a position where he could be transferred out, provided an attractive offer comes along.
According to insights from The Mirror, Liverpool is currently in the process of meticulously evaluating various prospects for their midfield lineup. Among the array of potential candidates, the names of Ryan Gravenberch from Bayern Munich and Sofyan Amrabat from Fiorentina have emerged.
However, considering Phillips’ peripheral status within Manchester City’s ranks, his transfer to Liverpool could emerge as a judicious financial decision in the current scenario.
