While club manager Jurgen Klopp seems to have ruled out the likelihood of any new players joining his squad before January comes to an end, that doesn’t mean there won’t be any departures.
Indeed, the manager did say “nothing will happen” with regard to any more winter incomings, but Phillips’ future still remains up in the air as a possible exit looms.
While talking about it all on the Born and Red podcast, Jacobs has revealed the latest information he has, with Galatasaray in talks over a possible loan for the centre-back.
He said (34:07): “With Nat Phillips, I think that Galatasaray are very genuine contenders.
“They are certainly keen to secure his services and talks can be described at this point as active.
“So then it becomes about what parties will be prepared to entertain. The last time I checked in on this, the loan until the end of the season was certainly a possibility.
“I think from a Galatasaray point of view, they were quite keen on a loan with an opinion to buy.”
