Manchester City reportedly submit an official bid to sign Leeds United midfielder Kalvin Phillips, who could be available for around £50m this summer.

Manchester City have reportedly tabled an official bid to sign Leeds United midfielder Kalvin Phillips this summer.

Following the official announcement of Erling Braut Haaland's arrival at the Etihad Stadium on Monday, Pep Guardiola is now believed to be on the lookout to find a replacement for Fernandinho.

According to Football Insider, the Premier League champions view Phillips as their primary target for the remainder of the summer window, although they are set to face competition from the likes of Manchester United, Newcastle United, Aston Villa and West Ham United for the 26-year-old's signature.

The report adds that the Citizens have now submitted their first offer for the Yorkshireman, who could be available for around £50m this summer.

City are understood to have been handed a major boost in their pursuit of Phillips as Leeds are allegedly set to sign Bayern Munich midfielder Marc Roca as his replacement.

The 19-cap England international, who has featured 234 times for his boyhood club since making his debut in 2015, has two years remaining on his contract at Elland Road.
