Few Leeds United supporters had any complaints when Kalvin Phillips left Elland Road to join Manchester City this summer. While there may have been question marks surrounding the fee Pep Guardiola's side paid for the midfielder, the Whites' faithful knew it was time for the 26-year-old to test himself against some of the best in the world.
Phillips was one of, if not the standout performer for Leeds during his final few seasons with the club. The transition from bit part academy player to midfield general under Marcelo Bielsa is one of the feel good stories to come out of Thorp Arch.
However, the move to the Premier League Champions has been a difficult one. Despite winning England's Player of The Year after a stellar EURO 2020, injuries plagued his final year with Leeds and those problems have carried on at The Etihad.
