Kalvin Phillips, gift for Juventus
The Juventus market
If he hadn’t already been put through the door, it would have been close. In recent days, Pep Guardiola has excluded Kalvin Phillips from his team, moving him away from Manchester City despite playing only 216 minutes all season. "I feel sorry for him, but I do not see him in my team", said the Catalan coach before the last game won against Luton.
Phillips è is now officially on the market and Juventus is considering acquiring him as an inexpensive reinforcement in the midfield. Juventus has arranged a meeting with Manchester City executives, probably this week, to figure out the terms of the deal. Juventus would like a six-month loan with an option to buy in July, but there is still uncertainty about the feasibility of the deal. In any case, Juventus is exploring all options, including that of investing in Teun Koopmeiners. Doubts have arisen at Continassa over Phillips’ name, but Juventus is working to find the best solution for the midfield.
Juventus has set its sights on City’s explosively gifted midfielder, who has become the main target for next season’s market. Kalvin Phillips, that is his name, has shown that he can also handle the defense and his profile has thus aroused the Bianconeri's interest. But the player’s decision to look for a new club is not only dictated by his ambition to participate in the European Championship with the English national team, but also by the need to find more continuity in his game.
Phillips knows that to be called up, he has to be a star player in his own team. But at City, he has not had a chance to prove his full value and his place for the 2024 tournament in Germany è now in jeopardy. Could Juve be the solution? From a sporting point of view, certainly yes. But at Continassa, evaluations are complex: the right balance needs to be found in the group, and Kalvin Phillips would need time to settle in Italy and fully understand Serie A soccer. Gatti and Cambiaso, examples of the Juve spirit, know that the decision to acquire a player must be carefully weighed.
Manchester City cheers Juve and Kalvin Phillips è one of the most prized players in the Premier League, with Manchester United, Tottenham and Newcastle in the front row to acquire his talent. His agent looks with interest at the option of a transfer to Juventus, but Manchester City may not be willing to strengthen a competitor within the same league, especially Manchester’s Red Streets rivals. However, è it is possible that everything depends on other possible market options for the Bianconeri champions. Juventus now knows that Kalvin Phillips may be a real option even in the last days of January, should the player express his desire to move.
