Liverpool are said to prefer a permanent exit for former Bolton Wanderers defender Nat Phillips this summer as recently promoted Bournemouth appear to be considering a transfer return for the player.
The 25-year-old Bolton-born centre half came through the youth ranks at Wanderers and is the son of former Whites defender Jimmy. However, he left in the summer of 2016 having not made a first team appearance for the club.
After departing Bolton, he joined the Anfield club's youth set up and began to train with the first team in 2018. He has made a total of 24 appearances for Jurgen Klopp's side since then, scoring once.
