Man City’s Phillips set for Sheffield United loan

Manchester City midfielder Kalvin Phillips is set to complete a loan move to Sheffield United.

Phillips is out of favour at Etihad Stadium and can leave before Monday’s 19:00 GMT transfer deadline.

He has agreed to move to Bramall Lane until the end of the season, with the Championship club working to finalise the deal for the former England international.

The 30-year-old’s one and only appearance this season came in the final seven minutes of City’s Carabao Cup win against Huddersfield in September.

Phillips – who joined Pep Guardiola’s men from boyhood club Leeds United in 2022 in a deal worth £45m – has previously been loaned out to Ipswich Town and West Ham United.

In December 2022, Guardiola slammed the midfielder for returning from the World Cup “overweight” and “not in the right condition to train”.
