Leeds United are reportedly interested in signing Liverpool defender Nat Phillips this summer. That's according to The Athletic, who claim the Whites' pursuit of the Reds' centre-half is 'irrespective of their head coach and sporting director appointments.'
Leeds saw their Premier League status slide away with defeat to Tottenham Hotspur on the final day of last season and they're now gearing up for life in the Championship. The ongoing 49ers Enterprises takeover at Elland Road has slowed transfers and a managerial appointment this summer, but former Norwich City boss Daniel Farke is said to be the front runner for the vacant position.
The German boss was understood to be keen on signing him during his stint at the Canaries. Jurgen Klopp's side are said to be holding out for a fee in the region of £10million for Phillips, who's under contract until the summer of 2025.
