Phillips happy at Leeds amid Tottenham, Juventus links

Leeds United midfielder Kalvin Phillips could be willing to leave the club if an offer arrives from Tottenham Hotspur, according to an ex-Leeds star.

Phillips has starred with England at Euro 2020, which has caused his stock to rise immensely.

Despite Phillips being a vital part of the Leeds team under coach Marcelo Bielsa, ex-Leeds and England star Carlton Palmer believes an offer from Spurs would turn his head.

Speaking to Thisisfutbol, Palmer said; " If Tottenham come knocking, no disrespect to Leeds United, I think Leeds United are a massive club.

"I'm a big admirer of Leeds United.

"But if you've got an opportunity to go and play at Spurs, you're going to want to leave Leeds to go and play at Spurs."

Palmer's claims are refuted by LeedsLive, with the source suggesting Phillips is happy at Leeds and the club have no desire to cash in on him.
