In order to solve the defense problems, Bayer Leverkusen should look around at Liverpool FC. The candidate already has experience in Germany.
Bayer Leverkusen are interested in signing Nathaniel Phillips from Liverpool FC. That reports Sky Sports. Accordingly, the Werkself are one of several clubs that have the 24-year-old on the list.
After the departures of Sven Bender and Aleksandar Dragovic and the serious injury to Edmond Tapsoba, Leverkusen want to add on the defensive. Bayer is trying to get Odilon Kossounou from Club Bruges, but the youngster does not have to be the only entry for the defense line.
Liverpool FC: Phillips could threaten the bench or the stands
Phillips already played in Germany in the 2019/20 season: He played for VfB Stuttgart in the second division before he returned to Liverpool a year ago. There he was needed quickly due to major injury concerns and did a very good job in coach Jürgen Klopp’s team. Since three central defenders have returned in Liverpool with Joel Matip, Joe Gomez and Virgil van Dijk and Ibrahima Konate from RB Leipzig is a new addition for these positions, things could be tight for Phillips.
In addition to Leverkusen, Brighton, Newcastle and West Ham should also be on him.
