Fabrizio Romano discusses Liverpool outgoings and Nat Phillips to West Ham

Fabrizio Romano says that any outgoing movement in the January transfer window should not be expected until the end of the month and a deal for Nathaniel Phillips to move to West Ham would therefore likely not happen for a few weeks.

For West Ham, it would mean solving a defensive injury crisis that could derail their season.

For Liverpool, it would mean recouping a decent sum for a player that is well-liked but is realistically never going to play in the starting XI unless lightning strikes twice and Jurgen Klopp is left with no other options at centre-back.
