Kalvin Phillips turned down the chance to leave Manchester City on loan in the summer to fight for his place in the team, according to Pep Guardiola.
WHAT THEY SAID:
"We talked with him and the club with the chance to maybe go on loan because he did not have a lot of minutes but he decided ‘no, I want to stay’. He is more than welcome," Guardiola told a press conference on Friday. "As a good guy who accepts everything and stays, they are welcome. When we finish the transfer window, every player here is part of the family and are going to help.
