Bournemouth are considering reigniting their interest in Liverpool defender Nat Phillips after their manager Scott Parker questioned his centre-back options.
Phillips spent the second half of last season on loan at the Cherries and helped them win promotion back to the Premier League.
Liverpool had been anticipating an offer of a permanent transfer for the 25-year-old having set an asking price of between £12million and £15m, only for concrete interest from a number of interested parties to have not yet been forthcoming.
