Another player is set to leave Liverpool this summer.
The coming season will be the dawn of a new era at Anfield, with Dutch coach Arne Slot replacing Jurgen Klopp.of his decision last November gave club bosses plenty of time to find a replacement, and Slot was the man they settled on.
After falling away in the Premier League title race last term, Liverpool's squad needs reinforcing if they are to challenge Manchester City and Arsenal at the top of the table.Adrian, Joel Matip and Thiago Alcantara have all departed following the expiration of their contracts, with the latter deciding to retire after an injury-ravaged campaign.The defender has spent the last eight years at Anfield, but he has never been able to nail down a regular place in the first team.
Phillips was subject to a £4 million bid from Turkish club Trabzonspor, but Liverpool are holding out for £8m to £10m.In May Phillips took to Instagram to thank Klopp for helping him in his career. Departing goalkeeping coach John Achterberg commented beneath the post: "You a good defender Nat! Good luck in your next move."
