I give up — Man City boss Guardiola frustrated, ready to sell £45million disaster signing

Manchester City's summer overhaul is already underway, with several players expected to depart when the transfer window opens in June.

One player likely to leave is Kalvin Phillips, who has struggled to make an impact since joining the club in a £45million deal from Leeds in 2022.

Phillips, 29, has made just 16 Premier League appearances for City, and has even been loaned out to Ipswich Town this season.

According to The Sun, Leeds scouts have been monitoring Phillips' progress, and a return to his former club could be on the cards.

Phillips' time at City has been underwhelming, with many feeling he never quite fit into Pep Guardiola's system.

With stiff competition from the likes of Rodri, Mateo Kovacic and Kevin De Bruyne, Phillips found it difficult to establish himself in the team.

The arrival of Nico and the reported interest in another midfielder this summer means his spell at the Etihad is over and will likely be remembered as a wasted opportunity.
