According to recent reports, it seems that Leeds United is currently the frontrunner in the race to sign Nat Phillips, the defender from Liverpool, before the end of January. Phillips has found limited playing time at Liverpool recently, and it would make sense for the club to let him go in order to alleviate the burden of his £65,000 weekly salary.
Various Championship teams, including Blackburn and Cardiff, are also said to be interested in signing Phillips, as reported by the Daily Mail. However, Leeds appears to be leading the chase for the 26-year-old. Phillips has had loan spells at Celtic and Bournemouth in the past due to his lack of playing time at Anfield.
It will be interesting to see how the situation unfolds and whether Leeds United will be successful in securing the signing of Nat Phillips before the transfer window closes.
