“Here we go, Kalvin Phillips to Leeds” Leeds United owners 49ers given Kalvin Phillips transfer instruction after Man City troubles

Leeds United is reportedly keen on re-signing Kalvin Phillips, the England international who has had a challenging time at Manchester City and West Ham United. Phillips, who played a crucial role in Leeds’ promotion to the Premier League in 2020, has struggled to find his form since moving to Manchester City and subsequently on loan to West Ham. Despite his recent struggles, a significant portion of Leeds fans are open to the idea of Phillips returning to Elland Road, provided the transfer fee is reasonable.

A recent poll conducted by Leeds Live revealed mixed feelings among Leeds supporters regarding Phillips’ potential return. Out of over 1,500 respondents, 55% expressed that Leeds should consider re-signing Phillips if the transfer fee is appropriate, while 39% opposed the idea. When asked about the maximum amount Leeds United should spend on bringing Phillips back, 49% of fans suggested £25 million as the upper limit, indicating a cautious but open attitude towards the midfielder’s return.

Phillips’ future remains uncertain as he is set to return to Manchester City after the 2023/24 season concludes. His exclusion from the recent England squad highlights the challenges he faces in regaining his top form. Leeds United’s interest in Phillips underscores the club’s desire to strengthen their squad, especially if they achieve promotion, but also reflects the complexities of football transfers, where player form, fan sentiment, and financial considerations all play critical roles.
