Phillips, who has spent his whole career at Leeds, is effectively the replacement for Fernandinho, who has left after nine years and returned to his native Brazil, joining Athletico Paranaense.

Phillips is City’s third summer signing, after the forward Erling Haaland and the goalkeeper Stefan Ortega. The manager, Pep Guardiola, next hopes to bring in Brighton’s left-back Marc Cucurella. The 22-year-old forward Julián Álvarez has also joined the squad after signing in January but staying at River Plate on loan.
