Manchester United personally dealing with Leeds star Kalvin Phillips – Florian Plettenberg
Manchester United are personally “dealing” with Leeds star Kalvin Phillips, according to Florian Plettenberg.
The Sky Sports reporter insisted that Declan Rice and Jude Bellingham are also targets although look harder at this stage.
Phillips has been strongly linked with Old Trafford but has told Leeds that he will sign a new contract at the end of the season [David Anderson].
Writing on his personal Twitter account, Plettenberg has shared what he has been told about any potential deal.
“Update Manchester United (2/2): Been told that the club “is dealing” with Kalvin Phillips,” he wrote.
“Another option is Declan Rice but Manchester United is aware of a price tag of around €100m. Jude Bellingham is a desired player but no chance due to a “No” from Borussia Dortmund.”
No chance.
Manchester United may be billionaire-owned, but they may as well pack their bags and move on from Phillips.
The Yorkshire Pirlo is Leeds through and through, and he knows more than anyone in this current squad that he would never be forgiven.
We believe that the bottom line is if the Whites stay in the Premier League, which it looks like they will, Phillips will stay and sign a new deal.
Jesse Marsch is looking to build something special, and he knows that any team he puts together will be better built around Phillips.
Who cares about a new manager coming in at Old Trafford? Manchester United are the most toxic club out there and is in ruin right now.
You can’t just throw money at your issues sometimes, and Phillips would forever regret making that move if he was tempted.
We don’t see that happening anytime in the near future.
