Creating links within PHP views

Question

I’m studying the MVC architecture watching videos and looking for examples on the Internet, I was able to implement the three layers and map the routes of my system, but I was wondering how to create links within the views. I don’t know if I should just call the files directly, or if I should use the controllers and route system for this.

1 - Creating direct links from archives

<li style="margin-top: -20px;"><a href="../login.php">Entrar</a></li>

2 - By route (I believe it is not the correct form but it works in my case)

<li style="margin-top: -20px;"><a href="login">Entrar</a></li>

3 - using controller (I don’t know how to do, I must instill a controller inside href ?)

<li style="margin-top: -20px;"><a href="     ">Entrar</a></li>

Class Action

<?php
namespace SON\Controller;

class Action{

    protected $view;
    protected $action;

    public function __construct(){
      $this->view = new \stdClass;
   }

    public function render($action, $layout=true){
        $this->action = $action;
        if($layout == true && file_exists("../App/Views/Template/layout.phtml")){

            switch ($action) {
                case "login":
                    include_once '../App/Views/Template/layoutLogin.phtml';
                    break;
                case "sobre":

                    break;
                case "home":
                include_once '../App/Views/Template/layoutHome.phtml';
                    break;
                default:
                include_once '../App/Views/Template/layout.phtml';
            }

        }
        else{
            $this->content();
        }
    }

    public function content(){
        $atual = get_class($this);
        $singleClassName = strtolower(str_replace("App\\Controllers\\","",$atual));
        include_once '../App/Views/'.$this->action.'.phtml';
    }

}
