According to rumours, Bundesliga champions Bayern Munich have made contact with Manchester City over a prospective bid for Kalvin Phillips.
Phillips has struggled to establish himself as a regular starter for the triple champions since joining from Leeds United for £45 million last summer. The 27-year-old midfielder has only made five appearances in all competitions for the Premier League champions.
A mid-season move for the England international has been linked to several teams. According to reports from 90 minutes ago, Bayern has now been added to the list.
After being forced to sell Manchester United-linked Ryan Gravenberch to Liverpool this summer, Thomas Tuchel is said to want to bolster his alternatives when the market reopens. On deadline day, Bayern saw a bid for Fulham midfielder Joao Palhinha fall through.
