Kalvin Phillips, a star midfielder for Manchester City, is reportedly eager to re-sign with Leeds United this summer as he is expected to leave the Premier League champions. Despite joining City in 2022 for a £45 million deal, Phillips has struggled to secure playing time and was sent on loan to West Ham in January. With hopes of making England’s Euros squad, Phillips is now looking for a new club, with Leeds being his preferred destination.

Phillips’ career is at a crossroads as he faces uncertainty over his future at both Manchester City and West Ham. If Leeds fails to secure promotion to the Premier League, it remains to be seen if Phillips would be willing to drop down to the Championship. His love for his boyhood club is evident, having been a key player in their promotion to the Premier League in the past, amassing 234 appearances for Leeds.

With the possibility of Leeds needing to go through the play-offs to secure promotion and uncertainties surrounding Phillips’ future, it remains to be seen if his dream return to Elland Road will come to fruition. Despite the challenges he faces, Phillips’ desire to reunite with his former club highlights his strong connection to Leeds United.
