Kalvin Phillips seemed to be a young player few Leeds United fans were excited about before the arrival of Marcelo Bielsa.
Bielsa, however, turned the midfielder into one of the best in the country in the holding role.
Dubbed by supporters the Yorkshire Pirlo, Phillips went on to cement himself in the England side before signing for Manchester City in 2022.
Phillips won the treble with City, but his career has gone downhill due to injuries and a lack of playing time, with loan spells at West Ham United and Ipswich Town not arresting the slump.
He is being linked with a return to Elland Road in the summer transfer window but another injury makes it unlikely.
