VERY SAD news has been announced for 28yrs old Manchester City player as the Club has blocked the player from joining his dream Club Newscastle United this January
For one reason, Manchester City is now stopping Kalvin Phillips from joining Newcastle in the January transfer window. This is the 28-year-old’s chosen move.
That’s what talkSPORT says.
So, what’s wrong with Newcastle that Manchester City won’t let Kalvin Phillips move? Let’s look…
There is a problem with Kalvin Phillips to Newcastle
In any case, talkSPORT says the England player wants to join Newcastle this month.
But it is said that Manchester City is stopping Phillips from working with Eddie Howe right now because they want the Magpies to pay a £5m loan fee.
The report also says that Manchester City wants Newcastle to agree to buy the 28-year-old player when the season ends.
According to 90min, Manchester City thinks Phillips is worth £40m. Based on this, it’s likely that the champions want Newcastle to agree to a £35m buy option for Phillips when the £5m loan is over.

Howe is thought to want the Manchester City No. 4 to replace Sandro Tonali, but it’s hard to make a lasting deal because of Financial Fair Play rules.
Manchester City wants Newcastle to agree to a permanent summer deal with Phillips before taking a good look at the Yorkshireman, which is making it hard for Newcastle to take him on loan.
Manchester City will find it hard to agree on a “obligatory purchase option.”
We believe that Manchester City will have a hard time getting someone to agree to buy Phillips.
The £45 million player has only started two Premier League games since moving from Leeds United in July 2022. He has also had a shoulder problem for a while now, which led to surgery in September 2022.
Because of this, Newcastle and probably other teams will want to give Phillips a good look on loan before committing to a permanent deal
worth around £35 million.
