Kalvin Phillips has had a good pre-season performance
Manchester City's Kalvin Phillips could remain in the Premier League next season with three clubs showing interest in acquiring his services.
City were initially seeking a permanent deal for the midfielder, who is not in Pep Guardiola's plans.
However, they could be open to another loan deal following his move to West Ham earlier this year.
According to the Manchester Evening News, Ipswich, Everton and Fulham are considering a move for Phillips as the transfer window draws to a close.
The 28-year-old is hoping for a fresh start after two difficult years following his £45million move to the Etihad Stadium from Leeds United.
Phillips has struggled to find his feet at City and has been stung by Guardiola's public criticism of his weight gain following the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.

Phillips has struggled for minutes under Pep Guardiola
Despite rejecting offers from other clubs at the start of last season in the hope of proving his worth to Guardiola, Phillips has failed to establish himself as a regular in the team.
He was loaned to West Ham in January, but the move did not go as planned.

Everton have shown interest throughout the transfer window, with Fulham and Ipswich also considering Phillips. Even if a permanent deal does not materialise this summer, a loan deal with City could still be on the cards.
The midfielder has featured regularly for Guardiola's side in pre-season and impressed when deployed as a centre-back, although he remains out of the Premier League holders' plans for the 2024/25 campaign.
