The hijackers and the home brokers of soccer are again ready to steal another major player of Man City and that is Kalvin Phillips. Now the hunters are looking to acquire the midfielder from the Citizens.
Bayern steals many players from their arch-rival every year and this year the trend continues as they secure a move for Raphael Guririero. After hunting and breaking the home of Dortmund, Munich goes ahead towards the European Champions.
The German giants loaned Joao Cancelo in this winter transfer from City and now they are in for the 27 years old British midfielder Kalvin Phillips.
Should Kalvin Phillips move to Bayern?
Yes, the Blue half of Manchester has won a treble and spent the most outrageous season in their history. They won everything that a team can in a season. But the season in terms of personal objectives is not going well for Kalvin Phillips.
Manchester City signed him last summer from Leeds worth 42 million euros. But the English midfielder was able to start only 3 games in the Primer League for Citizens.
While in the other 9 games, he came on as a substitute out of his total 12 appearances. The most interesting fact is that he was only able to be in the starting 11 when the Premier League is already in the pocket of the Sky Blues.

The German Champions are in discussion with the player’s agent to secure the talent. Regretful news is also spread in the market for Phillips as the Blue half of Manchester is monitoring the situation of Declan Rice.
The citizens will try to sign the English holding midfielder this summer if the deal actually happened then Phillips’s future will be in major doubt. However, the treble winners have to battle with the last season’s EPL runners-up Arsenal for Rice.
This season Phillips had very little time to play and he wants more playing time next season. West Ham showed engrossment to Phillips in a potential deal for Rice to City.
The English superstar wants more playing time and if he joins Bayern then he will be given more freedom on the pitch. This reason can help Bayern to obtain the signature of Phillips on their contract paper.
Previously, Bayern were also in race to sign Declan Rice but later they decide not to provide any official bid for the player and are looking for new options.
Should Bayern sign out of favour PSG star Fabian Ruiz if Kalvin Phillips rejects?
As per the source claim Bayern is interested in Phillips but still now no news is confirmed about what will be Bayern’s next move if the Phillips deal turned out to be a failure.
While Barcelona showed interest in Ruiz during the winter transfer window but nothing officially happened still yet. Bayern keeps in touch with Phillips’s agent and will try to meet the player’s demand.
