Man Utd great Keane has no doubts about Leeds midfielder Phillips

Manchester United great Roy Keane admits he's a fan of Leeds United midfielder Kalvin Phillips.

Keane addressed the midfielders England coach Gareth Southgate had decided to take to the Euros in his 26-man squad during the friendly with Austria.

“The player options are very, very good, but of course you're always worried about one or two injuries going into it particularly if he's thinking of getting Jordan Henderson involved," he said.

“The fact we're not seeing Jordan tonight, I know he's on the bench, you'd think he would have needed minutes tonight and at the weekend.

“There are some very good players in there. The worry for Gareth if is they get any more injuries. If these two players can't contribute on the pitch they are a huge loss."
