Kalvin Phillips has explained why he has decided to join Manchester City from Leeds United this summer.
The Citizens have confirmed the signing of the England international for a fee in the region of £45m - becoming their fourth arrival of the transfer window after Julian Alvarez, Erling Haaland and Stefan Ortega all made the switch to the Etihad Stadium. He has signed a six-year deal which will keep him at the club until 2028.
However, this ends Phillips' time at Leeds where he has spent the entirety of his professional career. Phillips came through the ranks at the Whites and helped them reach the Premier League in 2019/20 under Marcelo Bielsa. He played a starring role the season after as they finished ninth, earning him a starting place in the England side.
