“I can’t continue to be on a bench for Six Straight game and I haven’t getting a chance to play, Pep Guardiola keeps saying he’s preserving me for Big games when I can’t even start against LIVERPOOL- Fabrizio Romano says 27-year-old Man City player is ‘going to leave’ in January

Fabrizio Romano feels that there is a 99% chance that Kalvin Phillips will leave Manchester City sometime in January.

During the summer transfer window, the player was linked with a move to Newcastle United. However, he chose to stay at the Etihad Stadium to try to earn a spot in Pep Guardiola’s team.

This is after Phillips said that he might try to leave the Manchester club in January to get more playing time. Romano has now shared some behind-the-scenes information about this situation.

Phillips is expected to leave City in January, according to Romano.

In a recent video on his Kick channel, Romano was asked if Phillips might be moving to Newcastle in January. This is what he had to say about the possibility.

He said, “It’s not about getting closer, but they are thinking about that name.” There is no doubt that Kalvin Phillips will leave Manchester City in January. This is the clear direction of the deal, and it is almost certain to happen.

He wants to play, which is why, along with the Euros, the player is looking at options all over Europe, but especially in England, so that he can get used to his new team quickly. Newcastle could be a chance.

The English player was bought by the Citizens from Leeds United for £45 million in the summer of 2022.

The 27-year-old has only played 29 times for the club in all categories since then, starting only five of those games.

So, it’s clear that Phillips hasn’t become a regular member of City’s team. It’s easy to see why Romano thinks he might be leaving the club in January to try to get regular opportunities somewhere else.

Coming up, the winter transfer window will open. If the Manchester club receives a good offer for Phillips, it will be interesting to see if they then go out and buy another player to replace the Englishman.
