Leeds United are reportedly eyeing a summer move for Liverpool defender Nat Phillips, as per journalist Darren Witcoop.
Regardless of which league Leeds find themselves in next season, they are determined to pursue Phillips to bolster their defensive options.
With just one year left on his contract at Anfield, Liverpool are likely to sell Phillips in the upcoming transfer window rather than risk losing him for free the following year.
Despite his lack of game time at Liverpool, the Reds would still benefit financially if Leeds make a move for Phillips.
After an unsuccessful loan spell at Celtic, Phillips found success at Cardiff City, where he has become a key player known for his defensive prowess.
Leeds are not the only club interested in Phillips, as his solid performances have caught the eye of other Championship and potentially foreign clubs looking to secure his services.
At 27 years old, Phillips is seeking a permanent home where he can establish himself and further his career, making a move to Leeds a plausible option for him next season.
