The former Premier League midfielder Danny Murphy has endorsed the loan move of Kalvin Phillips to West Ham United, believing the London club is securing a top player despite his lack of playing time at Manchester City. The 28-year-old player is set to be announced as a new member of the Hammers soon after undergoing a medical examination. An agreement was reached between West Ham and City, with West Ham securing Phillips on loan until the end of the season, covering his salary and having the option to purchase him in the summer. The total cost is estimated to be around £34 million. For Phillips, this is an opportunity to revive his career after minimal playing time at the Etihad Stadium – and Danny Murphy believes it’s a great move for all parties involved. In an interview on talkSPORT, Murphy expressed his belief that it’s a positive deal for the talented Phillips, who now has the chance to play regularly under the guidance of a coach who has long admired him. The move has been driven by David Moyes, providing hope for Phillips. According to Murphy, Phillips can make a positive impact at West Ham and offer competition for the midfield positions. The loan move with an option to buy is seen as beneficial for all parties, as it allows Phillips to find playing time, offers potential for the Hammers, and provides financial benefits for City.
