Kalvin Phillips is likely to come to a real crossroads in his career this summer, whether or not Leeds United stay in the Premier League. He is attracting plenty of interest from other English clubs and will continue to be linked with a move away from Elland Road as the opening of the transfer window nears.
Of course, with his boyhood club’s fate still yet to be decided, it won’t be something that Phillips will be considering yet. Although, if the season concludes with relegation for the Whites, it is hard to imagine he will still be at the club next season.
His England ambitions ahead of the upcoming winter World Cup may dictate where he feels he will be best placed. Paul Merson believes that, in the case of relegation, he will have to get in touch with his international manager.
