Manchester City confirm the signing of Leeds United ace and England international Kalvin Phillips
Premier League champions Manchester City have completed the signing of Kalvin Phillips on a six-year deal.
Pep Guardiola's side splashed in the region of £45million for the England international as the club look to fill the void left by Fernandinho's departure at the end of last season.
Phillips, who spent his entire career at Leeds United, helped his boyhood club to Premier League promotion back in 2020 under the stewardship of Marcelo Bielsa.
Upon signing with the current league champions, the 26-year-old said: "I'm absolutely delighted to have joined Man City.
"It’s one of the main reasons I wanted to come to City, to improve my game in loads of different ways" 💬
