Nat Phillips faces an uncertain future as he prepares to head back to Liverpool this summer. His time at Parkhead was cut short after a disappointing own goal in a surprising 2-1 loss to Kilmarnock before Christmas. This setback significantly reduced his chances of staying with the Scottish champions.

Following the match at Rugby Park, Celtic manager Brendan Rodgers opted not to include Phillips in the squad for the team’s final five games of the year, effectively ending his time with the club prematurely. During his brief spell at Celtic, Phillips started just three games out of eight appearances, falling short of the high expectations set for him.

Phillips joined Celtic late in the August transfer window due to the team’s injury crisis, with key players like Cameron Carter-Vickers, Stephen Welsh, and Maik Nawrocki sidelined. His arrival was seen as a temporary solution to strengthen the defense, despite the less-than-ideal outcome. After parting ways with Celtic in January, Liverpool loaned Phillips to Cardiff, but they missed out on securing a playoff spot.

On December 10, 2023, at Rugby Park in Kilmarnock, Scotland, during a Scottish Premiership match between Kilmarnock and Celtic, Nathaniel Phillips of Celtic scored an own goal, leading to a 1-1 draw in the 75th minute.

In an interview with The Liverpool Echo, Phillips acknowledged the uncertainties in football and expressed his willingness to adapt to changing circumstances. When asked about the possibility of returning to the Championship for more playing time, Phillips stated that he would be open to the idea as he aims to continue enjoying regular football.
