It seems that Juventus will very soon jump into action to secure the services of Manchester City's midfielder, Calvin Phillips. The latter has played very little in coach Pep Guardiola's team, and it seems that the situation will not change at the Etihad. This is the reason that can push the Englishman to leave his club in the January market. This is where Juventus comes into play, which is monitoring the situation.
Currently, the "Old Lady" is considering the possibility of a loan transfer, as this may be the preferred option for Kalvin Phillips himself. The player must make a choice in January, taking into account his desire to play in the next European with the English national team. Coach Southgate has always entrusted Kalvin Phillips with the starting position, but with so few minutes on the green field with his club, the midfielder risks losing the starting position at the "3 Lions".
We remember that Kalvin Phillips came to the Etihad from the Leeds team for the figure of 43 million pounds. During the summer, the player was quite insistent about his plans to regain the trust of coach Pep Guardiola. However, during this season Phillips played only 216 minutes in total, as he was activated only 8 times with City's shirt.
What is known for sure is the fact that the City leaders will let Kalvin Phillips decide his future, as they have done with other players during the past markets. Meanwhile, Juventus has a relatively complete midfield, with players like Weston McKennie, Miretti, Rabiot or Locatelli. However, coach Allegri knows very well that a player like Calvin Phillips would give another boost to his midfield at a very important moment for Juventus, who are in a fierce competition with Inter for the Serie A title. .
