West Ham, Bayer Leverkusen join race for Liverpool defender Phillips

West Ham United are among the teams being credited with an interest in Liverpool defender Nat Phillips.

The center half was first linked to Brighton as a possible replacement for Ben White, who is Arsenal-bound.

Per Sky Sports, the Hammers are very keen to bring Phillips to London, with manager David Moyes on the hunt for a new center half.

The 24-year-old Phillips would fit the mold of what Moyes wants from a defender, given his stature and aerial presence.

Per the Liverpool Echo, the Reds would be happy to sell Phillips for roughly £10 million this summer.
