Alioski left LS11 two summers ago following the Whites’ first season back in the top flight after a sixteen-year exile.
The Macedonian joined Saudi Arabian club Al-Ahli to whom he remains contracted but spent last season on loan at Turkish giants Fenerbahce where he won the Turkish Cup.
The 31-year-old also caught up with former Leeds teammate Phillips at Old Trafford on Monday evening, snapping a selfie of the pair which the Man City midfielder then posted on his social media accounts.
