While much has been made of Kalvin Phillips’ probable January transfer from Manchester City to Juventus, the latest from Italy suggests that a move to Serie A isn’t at the top of the player’s wish list.
That would be to stay in the Premier League if possible, as clubs like Newcastle United are interested in his talents because to Sandro Tonali’s lengthy suspension.
Calciomercato has a major piece on Juventus and their interest in Phillips, in which they uncover the ‘facts’ regarding the England international and the Turin club.
While the Manchester City player may be seeking for a “new adventure,” only a loan can be arranged because any other type of transaction would be too costly.
‘Different profiles are being studied’ at Juventus, but it doesn’t mean they aren’t interested, and if a deal becomes available, ‘there would be no backing down’.
However, it is also stated that ‘Phillips is not Juventus’ first pick, and Juventus are not Phillips’ first choice’.
Newcastle, who ‘lead the pack of clubs’ ready to get’serious’ about a deal for the midfielder, are at the top of the player’s wishlist.
This backs up recent reports that the Magpies were interested in signing the player and making a deal.
