Midfielder has not started a league game this seasonManager reiterates his policy not to block a player’s path
Pep Guardiola will not stand in Kalvin Phillips’ way if the midfielder chooses to seek a move in January, but said the final call on the player’s Manchester City future rested with the club.
Phillips played in England’s wins over Australia and Italy in the recent international break, but remains a peripheral figure for his club. The 27-year-old revealed after the 3-1 victory over the Azzurri on Tuesday he was “going to have to make a decision on [my future] over the next months” as he tries to cement his spot for Euro 2024 next summer. He turned down the chance to leave in the summer to fight for his place at the Etihad.
