Liverpool is not keen on loaning defender Nat Phillips to Leeds this summer, according to reporter Alan Nixon on his Patreon.

He has been with the Premier League giants since 2016 and has made 29 appearances in all competitions for them to date, five of which came last term. The 26-year-old has also had loan spells away at Stuttgart and AFC Bournemouth in the past.
Manchester United winger Amad Diallo, who has been linked with a temporary switch to Leeds, is now reportedly on the radar of top-flight new boys Burnley and Sheffield United. According to a report by Football Insider, the pair are ‘ready’ to land the attacker ahead of next term.
The Ivory Coast international spent the last campaign on loan at Sunderland and helped the Black Cats make the play-offs under Tony Mowbray. He has also had a stint away from Old Trafford at Rangers in the past.
