Sheffield United linked with move for Leeds United man

Sheffield United are the latest club to be linked with a move for Leeds United midfielder Kalvin Phillips.

The Blades are monitoring his situation ahead of the transfer deadline on Thursday, according to a report by the Sheffield Star.

The 23-year-old has been heavily tipped for a move to the Premier League this summer with the likes of Aston Villa and Tottenham Hotspur linked with him throughout the summer.

Sheffield United are a new top flight side to be mentioned and they have delved into the Championship to bring in the likes of Callum Robinson, Ben Osborn, Luke Freeman and Oli McBurnie over the past couple of months and could now turn their attention to Phillips.

Phillips, who is from Leeds, has impressed for the second tier side over the past few years.

The 5ft 10inc midfielder is a Whites academy graduate having risen up through their youth ranks. He made his first team debut in a second tier fixture against Wolves in April 2015.

He has since made 139 appearances for Leeds and played 44 times in the last campaign under Marcelo Bielsa to help his side get into the Play-Offs. He also got in the Championship Team of the Season.

Leeds fans will be desperate to keep hold of Phillips over the last week of the transfer window and will have to see off interest from the likes of Aston Villa and Sheffield United.
