"Phillips' career has taken a sharp decline since his high-profile move to Man City. After leaving Elland Road as a fan favourite and England regular, his time at the Etihad has been deeply challenging. The 30-year-old has not featured for City since September and has struggled to earn the trust of Pep Guardiola, who has repeatedly preferred other midfield options."
"His spell at City has included two loan moves, the most recent being a temporary stint with Ipswich Town during their time in the Premier League. Far from reigniting his form, those loan spells have only deepened the sense that Phillips' once-promising career has stalled dramatically since leaving Leeds in 2022. What once looked like a natural progression to a title-winning superclub has instead become a nightmare."
"The midfielder is now ready to return to Leeds United but the Premier League side are not interested in making a move. Leeds have financial considerations to weigh and are prioritising other areas of the squad.

Kalvin Phillips is reportedly willing to return to Leeds United and would accept a move in the January transfer window. His career has declined sharply since moving from Elland Road to Manchester City, with limited playing time and a loss of trust from Pep Guardiola. The 30-year-old last featured for City in September and has had two loan spells, most recently at Ipswich Town, which failed to revive his form. Phillips now sits far from England international contention. Leeds United are not expected to pursue his signing, citing financial considerations and priorities elsewhere in the squad, and Farke's side are unlikely to make a move despite City being open to his departure.
