Manchester City midfielder Kalvin Phillips is set to join newly-promoted Ipswich on a season-long loan.
The 28-year-old has failed to break into the City team since his £45m move from Leeds two years ago.
He joined West Ham on loan for the second half of last season in an effort to save his England place but a combination of poor form and injury wrecked Phillips’ chances of making Gareth Southgate’s squad.
A number of clubs, including Fulham, were interested in signing Phillips but Ipswich appear to have won the chase, with the deal expected to be completed in the next 24 hours. It does not include the option to make the move permanent.
