Manchester City midfielder Kalvin Phillips is expected to be sold permanently in the summer transfer window. Currently on loan at West Ham United, Phillips has struggled to secure a regular starting spot at Manchester City. However, the club’s demanding asking price of £40 million for the England international midfielder has made it difficult for them to offload him permanently.

Despite his poor performances since moving to Manchester City from Leeds United for £45 million, Phillips is still considered good enough to play for top clubs. A return to his former club, Leeds United, could provide him with a fresh start and a confidence boost. However, it remains to be seen whether Manchester City will be willing to lower their asking price in order to facilitate his transfer.

With the European Championships approaching this summer, Phillips will be hoping to secure a spot in the national team squad. It will be interesting to see if he can regain his form and confidence in time for the tournament. A permanent exit from Manchester City seems crucial for Phillips to revitalize his career and reach the level he once attained at Leeds United.
