Manchester City manager, Pep Guardiola, has confirmed that Kalvin Phillips has joined Ipswich Town on a season-long loan.
Phillips picked the newly-promoted side over other Premier League teams.
City will pay a portion of the 28-year-old’s wages at the Tractor Boys.
Guardiola, speaking to the media on Friday, said Phillips has gone out in search of more playing minutes.
He said: “It looks like he’s going on loan to Ipswich. It’s close. I think it’s already done.
“He decided to go there. He has to have minutes.
“We thought he would not have the minutes he deserves. He has the chance in the future to maybe come back here.”
