Leeds United considering Nathaniel Phillips swoop

Leeds United have reportedly “explored” the possibility of signing Nathaniel Phillips.

The 27-year-old, who plays for EFL Championship club Cardiff City on loan from Liverpool, has been a consistent performer in defence.

For Leeds, securing Phillips could be a strategic move, especially if they aim to reinforce their squad for a strong push towards promotion or to solidify their position in the Premier League.

His experience in top-flight football with Liverpool, albeit limited, adds value to his profile.

Considering that Phillips’ contract with the Reds expires in 2025 and the possibility of him leaving for free next year, the Merseyside giants might be open to negotiations. This situation could benefit Leeds in securing a deal that suits their budget and squad requirements.

It will be interesting to see how negotiations progress and whether the Whites can successfully add Phillips to their roster for the upcoming season. His potential arrival could bolster their defensive options and contribute to their ambitions on the pitch.
