Man City to offer Phillips in Guimaraes bid?

Manchester City are reportedly willing to offer Kalvin Phillips to Newcastle United if it means boosting their chances of signing Bruno Guimaraes.

Since moving to St James' Park in January 2022, Guimaraes has established himself as a key player and cult hero with the Magpies.

The 25-year-old has made 36 starts and eight substitute outings, chipping in with nine goals to help Newcastle challenge for European qualification and silverware.

However, while the Brazil international still has over three years remaining on his contract, speculation persists regarding his long-term future.

Despite Guimaraes publicly stating that he wants to become 'a club legend' in the future, Real Madrid are said to be monitoring the situation.
