Kalvin Phillips claims Man City ace Erling Haaland is 'a massive fan' of Premier League rivals

Manchester City midfielder Kalvin Phillips has claimed Erling Haaland is a "massive Leeds fan" and that the pair have spoken about taking a trip to Elland Road.

Phillips has just recovered from a shoulder injury and is still hoping to make the cut for Gareth Southgate’s England squad for the World Cup. He swapped Leeds for Manchester in the summer but has played just three times for City due to his injury.

He is in line for minutes against Chelsea in Wednesday’s Carabao Cup clash as he tries to regain fitness ahead of Qatar. Norwegian Haaland, meanwhile, who will be resting during the World Cup, will be hoping to add to his 23-goal tally before the international break.
