Phillips backed to pen new Leeds deal

Ian Wright believes Kalvin Phillips will snub overtures from Premier League clubs to re-sign with Leeds United this summer.

Manchester United, Aston Villa, Newcastle United and West Ham United have all been linked with the Yorkshire native.

Speaking on his podcast, Phillips said: "I don't see him leaving. He should stay for a while.

"He's somebody that's going to be wanted, simply because of the way he's playing, how good he is in that position.

"He's going to be integral in the future for England. At some stage, he'll obviously want to play at the levels, in the Champions League because that's what his talent deserves."
