Any ideas on the way forward are highly welcome.

The following worked and upgraded PHP to 7.3
Step 1 — update sources list --------use https://repogen.simplylinux.ch/ to generate a list and copy the generated list to etc/apt/sources list and save
Step 2 ---- sudo get-update
Step 3------sudo apt-get upgrade -------------------upgrades ubuntu to 14.04 LTS
Step 4–sudo get update
Step 5 --[server]$ cd ~ * to get to home directory
wget http://www.php.net/distributions/php-7.3.26.tar.gz --------------- *replace link with which ever version of php you want to download *
sha256sum php-7.3.26.tar.gz *…tar -----------substitute with version you downloaded
tar -xvf php-7.3.26.tar.gz * …tar -----------substitute with version you downloaded
mkdir local
cd ~/php-7.3.26.tar.gz …file/mirror name according to what you downloaded
sudo apt-get install libxml2-dev
./configure && make
