Arsenal target Man City midfielder in major January upgrade as star admits he’s ‘been unhappy’ at Guardiola treatment_ pep Guardiola confirmed man City star who’s more creative than Bakayo Saka will join Gunners January

According to reports, Arsenal is contemplating a January attack on Manchester City in order to sign disgruntled midfielder Kalvin Phillips. Phillips has stated that he wishes to quit the club.

For the first time, he was irritated that Pep Guardiola didn’t play him enough, and he understands that he is now in a make-or-break situation at the Etihad.

The 27-year-old England striker moved from his childhood club Leeds to the Etihad for £42 million in the summer of 2022.

Rodri, on the other hand, was in the greatest shape of his career as City won the treble, and Phillips didn’t get any playing time with his new squad.

Last season, he only played 291 minutes in the Premier League and 39 minutes in the Champions League. He has only made four starts since signing, which is the same number of starts he has made for his country in the same time frame.

Phillips may have departed the club in the summer if he didn’t get enough playing time, which would have jeopardized his hopes of reaching the England team.

In fact, Liverpool, Newcastle, and Bayern Munich were all rumored to be interested in signing him. It was also said that the player would be given the option to depart.

Over the summer, Mateo Kovacic and Matheus Nunes were brought in, but Phillips chose to stay.

According to Guardiola, “We talked with him and the club about the possibility of him going on loan because he wasn’t getting a lot of playing time.”

“But he said, ‘No, I want to stay’.”He is most welcome.

Arsenal is now trying to get Kalvin Phillips.

“As a good guy who stays and takes everything,” Guardiola continued.

They are welcome to come in. When the transfer window ends, everyone here will pitch in to help because they are all members of the same family.

Phillips has only played 52 minutes for City this season since then.

According to Spanish sources, Arsenal is seriously considering making an offer for Phillips in January because they believe it is time for the player to move away.

As a result, Gunners manager Mikel Arteta believes Phillips is the best long-term option for Jorginho, who has struggled recently and has received severe criticism.

When Tottenham scored their second equalizer in Sunday’s 2-2 North London derby, Arsenal came under fire for giving up the ball too quickly.

Phillips, on the other hand, seemed eager to give City another shot. And the guy is now hoping for a consistent run of games.

Rodri was dismissed against Nottingham Forest and will be suspended for the next three games. Kevin De Bruyne and Mateo Kovacic are also injured and will not be able to play for City.

Phillips understands that it’s now or never for him at the Etihad. He recently expressed his displeasure with Guardiola for not providing him enough playing time for the first time.

Before Wednesday’s Carabao Cup match against Newcastle, Phillips remarked, “Yeah, this is probably the biggest week or so of my Man City career so far.” I’m prepared and looking forward to it.”

Phillips’ agent did speak with him about leaving throughout the summer.

But, having admitted for the first time that he was “unhappy” with his lack of playing time, he was resolved to work hard and prove to Guardiola that he was more than capable of earning a regular berth in his team.

“Yeah, that’s exactly what I’m all about,” he told the Daily Mirror. “I’m not going to spend one season at City and then say, ‘Well, I liked it for a year, but it’s not for me,’ just because I’m not playing.

“Even though it will be difficult, I want to try to make the team.” I want to build a name for myself at Manchester City.

That is why I have come. I did not come here to sit on a bench and do nothing. I’d like to continue in some capacity, and I’m hoping I can.
