Turin –
Juventus reportedly wants to strengthen his midfield ranks in the January transfer market. Name Kalvin Phillips sticking out.
Calciomercato reported that Juventus is monitoring the midfielder Manchester City That. The English player is on the radar of the Bianconeri, who are facing a midfielder crisis.
Juventus is porous in midfield at the moment. After Paul Pogba stumbled upon a doping problem, Nicolo Fagioli was also sentenced to a ban on playing because of a gambling case.
Pogba, if proven guilty, will also be banned from playing. That’s what made Phillips’ name stick out.
Kalvin Phillips himself had difficulties at Manchester City. Recruited from Leeds United last season, the 27 year old player was unable to win the main position because he was unable to compete with Rodri and Guendogan last season.
Meanwhile this season, the arrival of Mateo Kovacic also means that Kalvin Phillips is still the last choice for Pep Guardiola. Until now, he has only made 23 appearances for The Citizens.
If moving to Juventus, Phillips’ chance to play may be wide open. However, he is not the only player being targeted.
The Serie A giants reportedly also want Pierre-Emile Hoejbjerg. However, The Lilywhites priced the midfielder at 30 million Euros. Juventus is reportedly exploring a loan attempt, before making him permanent.
