Keen to strengthen their midfield in the upcoming winter transfer window, the PSG coach could seize a golden opportunity at Manchester City.
Transfer Market PSG: An Unwanted Manchester City Player in Ligue 1?.
Likely to depart from Manchester City during the January transfer window, Kalvin Phillips could be one of Luis Campos‘ surprises to bolster Luis Enrique‘s team. Signed for €49 million in the summer of 2022, the former Leeds United player finds himself in a sporting deadlock at City. With minimal playing time, having started only twice in the Premier League since his arrival, the 28-year-old English international is eager for a fresh start in the second half of the season. Pep Guardiola doesn’t seem to rely on him much.
According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, Kalvin Phillips‘ situation has piqued the interest of several European clubs, including Bayern Munich, Newcastle, Tottenham, Liverpool, Manchester United, and Juventus Turin. However, the Italian source suggests that a French club is also eyeing the Englishman. The name of this French suitor has not been revealed, but considering the player’s caliber and salary at Manchester City, only Paris Saint-Germain seems capable of entering into such an operation. The reigning European champion could facilitate the departure of their number 4.
Is Manchester City ready to let Kalvin Phillips go this winter?.
Despite a contract running until June 2028, Kalvin Phillips could leave Manchester City in the upcoming winter transfer window. While PSG could easily afford the player’s €10 million annual salary in a loan deal, other European teams are also reportedly willing to make a similar sacrifice to have him in their squad in January. However, according to the latest information from Fabrizio Romano, Juventus Turin is currently making a strong push to acquire Kalvin Phillips. Negotiations are said to be underway between the two clubs based on a loan with an option to buy. No agreement has been reached yet, but the player is said to have already given his approval for the transaction.
