Live Bar October 5 News England midfielder Calvin Phillips has attracted the interest of a number of clubs, including Manchester United, due to his excellent performance at Leeds United. However, due to the historically hostile relationship between the two clubs, the deal seems unlikely to materialize.
In an interview with Football Insider, former Leeds United defender Danny Mills gave his opinion on it. Mills said: "I think if Calvin Phillips had another option, he would go elsewhere and play because I saw this happen when I played at Leeds United before. Ferdinand left, but he only played at Leeds United for a year; Alain Smith also left, I think the fans understand what he did but don't quite approve of it, some fans will never forgive him. ”
"I understand that because there has always been a hostile relationship between the two clubs. Will Phillips be a good fit for United? Will he be able to play at Manchester United? I can answer without hesitation that he is suitable for Manchester United or can play football. Will he get promoted by Manchester United? yes. Whether Leeds United fans like it or not, Manchester United is a global brand and you can't deny that. ”
"I think Phillips' contract renewal would include a buyout clause that could be activated in some case. Phillips is a loyal Leeds United fan who knows what he has to do if he has to leave. And, he has other options that I think he'll consider first. ”
"Phillips has a career worth pursuing. If you have to leave, don't pay too much attention to the antagonistic relationship between the two clubs, joining Manchester United is an option and you have to think about such things seriously. You can't ignore him because of his loyalty and being a Leeds United fan since he was a child. ”
"The players' careers are very short and they will have a very big difficulty in the process. Sometimes, when the opportunity arises you have to think hard about it. ”
