Flocking to Twitter, many West Ham United fans are buzzing after Sky Sports dropped claim involving Liverpool defender Nathaniel Phillips.
Irons boss David Moyes is on the look out for centre-halves this summer as after the departure of Fabian Balbuena on a free transfer, with reports suggesting that is one of his main priorities.
West Ham face a difficult 2021/2022 season as they gear up to take part in the Europa League group stages and the club need to strengthen in key areas.
Sky Sports, dropping a claim on live TV (via Football Daily), now say that West Ham are one of the teams interested in signing Phillips this summer alongside Brighton, Burnley and Newcastle United.

According to WhoScored, out of Liverpool’s entire squad, Phillips averaged the most clearances per 90 (4.8) and won the most aerial duels (5.6) – leaving little wonder why some of these supporters believe he could be ‘perfect’.
