Leeds United transfer rumours as Whites eye shock Kalvin Phillips return

Here are your latest Leeds United transfer rumours for Monday, March 26.

Leeds United 'interested' in Kalvin Phillips return

Leeds United are reportedly interested in re-signing Kalvin Phillips in the summer transfer window, according to the Daily Star.

They claim that despite having left Elland Road just nine months ago, the Whites are looking to bring the Manchester City man back to West Yorkshire. West Ham and Newcastle United are also understood to be among the clubs looking to offer Phillips an escape route from the Etihad Stadium this summer.

The midfielder is yet to start a Premier League game under Pep Guardiola as both injury and form have hampered his progress with the reigning champions. The vast majority of Phillips' minutes this term have come towards the end of matches, coming on as a late substitute.

The financials of any deal are still to be determined but is thought that Man City would look to recover the money they paid for him last summer in full before they sanction any potential sale.

West Ham to rival Whites for striker target

Elsewhere, the Sun report that West Ham are looking to make a move for Coventry City striker Viktor Gyokeres.

They claim that David Moyes went to personally see the Swede last week as the Hammers look to beat Leeds to the signing of the Sky Blues hitman. Gyokeres has scored 18 goals in the Championship for Coventry and has been called up to Sweden's squad for their European Championship qualifiers.

The 24-year-old is believed to be available for around £20million should Coventry miss out on a spot in the play-off places and avoid promotion, with West Ham preparing to swoop in ahead of Leeds to secure his services for the 2023/24 season.
