Leeds United midfielder Kalvin Phillips wants to discuss a new contract at the club.

The England star was the subject of a mega money offer from West Ham United in January, which Leeds rejected.

Manchester United and Liverpool have also previously been linked with the 26-year-old.

According to his agent Kevin Sharp, Phillips and Leeds will now discuss terms on a new deal, as he has always wanted to remain at the club.

Sharp said: "Kalvin was pleased that Leeds turned those offers down.

"He has never asked to leave Leeds in all his time with the club and has no intention of doing that now or in the summer.

"But I understand the offer that was turned down would have been a record for both buying and selling clubs.

"So I would hope that Leeds would honour their promise of a new contract for him which would then end any unsettling speculation about his future this summer."
