The midfield player is being watched by Crystal Palace, Newcastle, and West Ham. Barcelona, Atletico Madrid, and Juventus are also considering a move for him.
After leaving Leeds to join City eighteen months ago, Phillips has struggled, and he is under pressure to find a new home this month. The 28-year-old has to play frequently to guarantee his spot in England's Euro 2024 team, since he hasn't started a Premier League game this year. However, the expense of lending Phillips may dash his plans to relocate. For a player who will only be with them for a little over half of the season, interested parties are hesitant to invest £7 million. As the transfer deadline draws near, there is optimism that the cost will decrease because Phillips is not in Pep Guardiola's plans. Phillips might demand assurances of consistent football play.
