Blackburn Rovers join the race to sign Liverpool defender Nat Phillips on loan after Celtic spell was cut short
Blackburn Rovers are hopeful of signing Liverpool defender Nat Phillips on loan.
The centre-back spent the first half of this season on loan at Celtic but barely featured for the Scottish champions once they had a fully-fit compliment of defenders.
Mail Sport understands Cardiff and Blackburn are also keen on bringing him in on a short-term basis.
Leeds are also keeping an eye on Phillips, who played a pivotal role for Liverpool in their quest for Champions League qualification during an injury-hit season a few campaigns ago.
The 26-year-old has struggled for game time with Celtic, making only six appearances for a total of 314 minutes.
