The old rivalry between Leeds and Manchester United could help Liverpool as they plot a move for Kalvin Phillips

Leeds United and Manchester United are one of the greatest rivals in English Football. Their rivalry goes back to the Wars of Roses in the 15th Century and the heated atmosphere between their Fans could still be seen. The Sun has reported that Kalvin Phillips would not be keen on a move to Old Trafford, given the old rivalry between Leeds and Manchester United and the sour taste that switch would leave in the mouths of fans at Elland Road.

Meanwhile, the midfielder is apparently of the belief that fans would be relatively less upset if he joins Liverpool. He might leave Leeds in order to sign for Jurgen Klopp’s club, which is his preference. However, it has been a difficult season for both Kalvin Phillips and his club so far as Marcelo Bielsa’s side are 15th in the Premier League table. The Whites are just six points above the relegation zone at the moment.

A hamstring problem picked up at the weekend in a draw with Brentford could keep Phillips out until February. He becomes the latest player to get injured in an injury-plagued season for Marco Bielsa. He joined Leeds United in 2014 and has made over 226 appearances for the club.
