Nat Phillips has confirmed that he is ready to leave Liverpool in January if a bid is tabled for him.
West Ham have been heavily linked with a potential swoop to sign the Reds centre-back as David Moyes seeks cover for the injured Angelo Ogbonna and Kurt Zouma. 
Phillips was relied upon by Jurgen Klopp last season after they had their own injury crisis, with both Virgil van Dijk and Joe Gomez ruled out, and he eventually made 20 appearances in all competitions.
This season, though, the defender has struggled for minutes and has played just three times in all competitions, failing to make a single Premier League appearance.
And he has now confirmed that he is willing to move on in January as he seeks regular first-team football.
Speaking to Sky Sports, the 24-year-old said: “I want to be playing games. It’s been tough because the competition to get in this team is fierce.
“The manager and I agree that the best thing for me is to play as many games as possible. I think you saw last year I developed well.
“I’m going to see what comes along [in January] and go from there. I think at this moment in time it’s unlikely that I’ll be playing lots of games for Liverpool, so if an opportunity arises where I get the chance to do that somewhere else and it suits everyone then it’s certainly something I’d be interested in.
“I’ve had the exposure and experience in the Premier League and the Champions League. So maybe those situations where you’re new and nervy, I’ve gone through that phase.
“I don’t need to go through that process if I do go somewhere else. I’ll be ready straight away to get involved and play.”
Phillips has a contract that runs until 2024 and reports suggest that he is valued at around £10m by the Reds.
Now this would be a good signing if we could pull it off. A strong young player who wants to play and has solid Premier experience. Yes from me
