The Reds are in no rush to sell the centre-back who signed a new contract until 2025 last summer.

However, they would be open to letting him go if an acceptable offer arrives. The price tag is reported to be around £15m, with some 

 clubs also contacting Liverpool about the player's availability.

Phillips has already claimed that he would be prepared to leave in search for regular game time.

"The manager and I agree that the best thing for me is to play as many games as possible. I think you saw last year I developed well. I'm going to see what comes along [in January] and go from there.

spot on Noel, I would say Nat Philips is more playable than Gomez and Konate, it would be a disaster to sell Nat Philips.

Michael Liew

Even if they would get rid of Gomez they would still sell Nat as he can't play the game Klopp wants our cb's to play

Christian.

Agree with You Noel , haven't  got a clue why the club are getting rid of Nat Phillips, he's a worker on the pitch.

Ernie O'Grady

Lads you got to be kidding right. It took me one game,the first he played,  to see that he doesn't fit how we play. It's not even hard 😕

Get rid of delayed reaction,and injury prone joe Gomez.And keep Nat Philips.

Noel Browne

I agree with you Michael, it is a real shame on owners of clubs that have a big history to run the club with pure business mentality disregarding and neglecting the necessity of keeping up the reputation and the heritage of these clubs.  

They’re making use of the club’s name and heritage in order to collect more money in their pockets and then flee with it leaving huge deterioration behind.

What I am really astonished with is, the way they think is very short-sighted because matter of fact, keeping up the club heritage with all their power and resources is a direct and sustainable way to bring more money in their pockets too.  Holding the stick from the middle is no-brainer resort.

Essam El Gizawy

They bought Konate because he fits better. If he wouldn't fit better they would have stayed with Nat but they didn't. 
To be able to buy new players you got to have room for them and we don't have room so someone's gotta go and no clubs got 5 cb's

We have a lot of deab wood on the bench selling them first , would make sense.  Give Nat more games so he can blend in.

Why not try him in a different position ( mid field) might work.

Sorry man, I like him too but he does certainly not have the skills to play there

it's a shame that Liverpool FC is letting Nat Philips go for 15m, a club we always love but selling one of our future good CB just for profit sake, I'm really fed-up with all these nonsense of selling without buying good players to sustain our title ambition. WTF
