"It is thought the stricken Midlands side are considering adding the Manchester City midfielder on a temporary basis until the end of the season. Phillips, 30, is out of favour at the Etihad Stadium and has been for some time, spending last season on loan at Ipswich Town and the second half of 2023/24 with West Ham United. Neither side chose to make the England international's stay permanent."
"Despite taking over at Molineux only recently, reports had suggested former Middlesbrough, Watford and Luton Town boss Edwards was under pressure to deliver results, which could have affected the club's transfer business if poor results had continued. Edwards' position is no longer thought to be under threat after Wolves finally recorded their first league win of the season with an emphatic victory over West Ham United last weekend, which followed a 1-1 draw with Manchester United at Old Trafford."
"Wolves lost key players Matheus Cunha and Rayan Ait-Nouri during the summer transfer window and additions have so far failed to deliver on the pitch. Thirty-one cap England man Phillips has made just one appearance for Pep Guardiola's Manchester City this term - a seven-minute run-out in the Carabao Cup victory over League One outfit Huddersfield Town back in September."
Wolves are seeking to avoid relegation in 2025/26 and plan January reinforcements under manager Rob Edwards. The club is considering a loan for Manchester City midfielder Kalvin Phillips until season's end. Phillips is out of favour at Manchester City and had recent loans at Ipswich and West Ham, with neither making a permanent move. Edwards had been under pressure but is no longer thought to be at risk after improved results. Wolves lost Matheus Cunha and Rayan Ait-Nouri in the summer and their additions have yet to make an impact. Phillips has made only one appearance for Manchester City this term and would likely need to prove his fitness before any loan.
