<\/p>\nKALVIN PHILLIPS is reportedly wanted by Juventus in the January transfer window.<\/p>\n
The Manchester City outcast has barely featured this season having only made eight appearances in all competitions, and a move could benefit his career.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Phillips' lack of game time has seen him linked with an exit from the Etihad Stadium\/<\/p>\n
Juventus could be an escape route for the Englishman as Calcio Mercato have reported.<\/p>\n
The outlet claims that a loan move could prove to be "convenient" for all parties in the January window.<\/p>\n
A permanent move appears to be off the cards because his salary and price tag are said to be "complicated" for the Serie A giants.<\/p>\n
The Italian outfit will have to act fast should they want to wrap a deal for the 27-year-old as Newcastle are claimed to be "leading the pack" of interested clubs.<\/p>\n Pep Guardiola has previously insisted that he would not stand in the way of players such as Phillips wanting to leave the club.<\/p>\n He said: "Never. Never ever [would I stand in the way].<\/p>\n \u201cFrom my point of view, I have said this to the club many times. I give my opinion to the club and they decide if the transfer suits for both sides and the player.<\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n CASINO SPECIAL – BEST CASINO WELCOME OFFERS<\/strong><\/p>\n \u201cWhy? I think that means you are a small club [if you block a transfer]. Big clubs, they don\u2019t care. They make decisions for the benefit of all three parties, players and both clubs \u2013 and the agents sometimes. So really it is not a problem.<\/p>\n \u201cIf they want to go to Chelsea or [Manchester] United or, I don\u2019t know, Liverpool, whatever, what is the problem? They are happy to be there and the club is happy with the transfer.<\/p>\n \u201cThe other club is happy with the amount of money they spend, so it is fine. Another player will come to us and we keep going in a good spirit and a good mood.\u201d<\/p>\n The Magpies are keen on adding a midfielder to their squad in the New Year in order to cover for Sandro Tonali.<\/p>\n The Italian midfielder is currently serving a ten-month ban for illegal betting.<\/p>\n Eddie Howe's side have also been linked with a move for former Wolves star Ruben Neves, who is now playing in Saudi Arabia with Al-Hilal.<\/p>\n However, that move could be blocked as Premier League clubs are proposing a ban on loans between teams with the same owners.<\/p>\n![](\"https:\/\/www.thesun.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/B10G40-Betfred-Image-Football-1.jpg\")
