Kalvin Phillips On His Dad In Prison, Crying After Man City Comeback & Phoning Bielsa After Leeds

Our guest today is Manchester City and England midfielder, Kalvin Phillips.

Born in Leeds and raised in poverty by his mother and grandmother while his father spent recurring stints in prison, he began his professional career as a midfielder at Leeds United, where he was dubbed the “Yorkshire Pirlo”. In 2020, he started every game for England at the Euros.

A big money move to Manchester City followed, but injury has meant nearly no match time.

Gareth Southgate says: “He is a super player”, but “inevitably it’s not a situation that can continue forever.”

His best friend says: “[He’s] never let the football, the fame, the money, get on top of him.”
