A number of Liverpool supporters have called for Nathaniel Phillips to be sold by the club, following rumoured interest from Serie A giants Napoli.
The 24-year-old became something of a cult hero last season, filling the centre-back void left by injured trio Virgil van Dijk, Joel Matip and Joe Gomez.
In the end, Phillips played a big part in Liverpool sealing an unlikely third-placed finish in the Premier League, starting 15 games in the top flight.

Minutes have been hard to come by this time around, though, with just three appearances to his name in all competitions, and he is now being linked with a move away from Anfield.
According to The Times [via Anfield Watch on Twitter], Napoli have shown an interest in signing Phillips, and Liverpool would demand £15m for his signature.

These Reds fans took to Twitter to react to the news, believing that it makes sense for the defender to move on.
