Some Leeds United fans have taken to Twitter to give their reaction to speculation linking Kalvin Phillips with Manchester United.

What’s the story?

The Daily Star have reported that United are interested in signing Phillips from Premier League rivals Leeds in the summer of 2022.

The Red Devils want(ed) to sign Declan Rice, but West Ham United want £90 million.

So, United have turned their attention to Leeds and England international midfielder Phillips.

The report claims that the 25-year-old midfielder is valued at £60 million.

What are Leeds United fans saying?

As you can see from the tweets below, Leeds fans do not think that Phillips will move to United in the summer of 2022.

Well, some of them anyway.

Leeds and United are bitter rivals, although players such as Eric Cantona, Alan Smith and Rio Ferdinand have moved from Elland Road to Old Trafford in the past.

Moreover, the West Yorkshire club signed Daniel James from the Red Devils in the summer transfer window.

However, Phillips is a Leeds fans, and it is hard to see the Englishman force a move to the Red Devils.

We all know that money talks, but Leeds are trying to re-establish themselves in the Premier League and will know that finding a player like Phillips is not going to be easy even if they get £60 million.
