Bayern Munich and Liverpool have both shown interest in signing Manchester City midfielder Kalvin Phillips, 90min understands.
Phillips moved to City from Leeds United last summer for a fee of £45m but has been restricted to just 21 appearances and under 600 minutes of action in the 12 months since.
Despite his struggles, the 27-year-old insisted earlier this summer that he wanted to stay and fight for his future at the club, but that has not stopped teams from across Europe voicing an interest in his services.
Indeed, sources have confirmed to 90min that German champions Bayern Munich are keen on Phillips, with their interest driven by manager Thomas Tuchel, who is known to have been impressed by the England international during his time working at Chelsea.
Liverpool have also enquired about a move for Phillips as Jurgen Klopp seeks to bolster a midfield that missed out on both Moises Caicedo and Romeo Lavia to Tuchel's former employers.

Phillips' future could be tied to that of Dutch midfielder Ryan Gravenberch, whose continuation at Bayern is unclear.
90min understands Gravenberch has informed Bayern of his interest in moving to the Premier League, where both Liverpool and Manchester United have both added the 21-year-old to their shortlists.
While the Premier League sides are eyeing a loan move for Gravenberch, Bayern would prefer a permanent sale, which would go a long way to helping fund a move for Phillips if the Bundesliga champions chose to advance their interest in the City midfielder.
Phillips, who has been an unused substitute in each of City's four games this season, remains under contract at the Etihad Stadium until 2028.
