A big fat yes to that one. £20m? He’ll be worth twice as much after 12 months with us.

Good player English, reasonable price, do it

Decent price if true imo, versatile box to box midfielder and he’s useful both playing deep and going forward

Would you want to see Kalvin Phillips signed by the Old Gold?No, we should look higher than the Championship
Yes, he seems like he would be a good addition

Phillips has caught the eye in recent months, with a solid average rating of 7.2/10 over 30 appearances this season (as per WhoScored) being enough to convince the Molineux faithful that they want the 24-year-old brought to the Midlands. The midfielder has bagged one goal and two assists (per Transfermarkt) for Marcelo Bielsa’s side.
Yes get him

What do we think?
With his very impressive average rating for the season so far in England’s second tier (per WhoScored), it is clear that the Englishman has talent.
While he has a market value of £9.9 million (per Transfermarkt), with four and a half years left on his contract, a deal around the £20-million mark would not be bad business for Espirito Santo.
