Kalvin Phillips is set to be a Manchester City player in time for the start of pre-season as the club close on their second major signing of the summer.
City have already completed a deal for Norwegian striking phenomenon Erling Haaland, beating strong competition from Real Madrid to sign the 21-year-old from Dortmund. And after agreeing a £45m fee with Leeds this week, City are expected to swiftly wrap up a move for England international Phillips.
With January signing Julian Alvarez also joining the first team squad, Pep Guardiola can welcome at least three new faces when the players report back for pre-season in early July. Brighton left-back Marc Cucurella also remains a target, as is goalkeeper Stefan Ortega on a free transfer.
