Liverpool defender Nat Phillips happy making Celtic move

Liverpool stopper Nat Phillips has discussed his choice of club this week.

The defender has signed for Scottish giants Celtic on a short term contract before transfer deadline day.

On Thursday, Phillips opened up on his decision to join Celtic instead of any other team.

Speaking to Celtic TV, the defender said: “I'm really excited. When I heard about the interest it was one that got me excited.

"There were a few other options that didn't quite make me feel the same as this one did, so I was really keen to get it over the line and I'm delighted to be here now.

"It's such a huge club, the club's aspirations, the level it competes at, the fact that they're in the Champions League this year and the mentality of the club – they want to be winners in everything they do."
