'He will find your feet': Michail Antonio reveals what Phillips told him about De Bruyne on his first day at West Ham

Michail Antonio shared some insider information about Kevin De Bruyne, courtesy of Kalvin Phillips. Antonio, speaking to Sky Sports, highlighted the one specific thing about De Bruyne.

Antonio said: "When Kalvin came to West Ham, the first thing I said to him is, 'How good is Kevin De Bruyne really?"

"He went, 'Outstanding. He sees passes that nobody else sees. He says all you need to do is run and he will find your feet. When him and [Erling] Haaland are together, I see an assist!"

Phillips made 27 appearances for City since last season, mostly in short cameo roles. Moving to the London Stadium, he aims to boost his career before the upcoming Euro 2024.

Hoping to catch Gareth Southgate's attention for squad selection, Phillips brings 18 months of experience training and playing with some of the world's best footballers, including none other than De Bruyne.
