Playing Career |
Club(s) |
After being rejected at
Southampton FC after becoming an apprentice at right-back, he began his football career with Baldock
Town FC
in 1991. Manager Ian Allinson moved him up front and soon his goalscoring
was noticed by Watford FC, who signed Phillips for an eventual £30,000 on 19 December 1994. Despite a
year out with a foot injury, a £325,000+
deal took him to Sunderland AFC on 17 July 1997. Following his success he
courted interest from Arsenal
FC and Tottenham Hotspur FC. However, Phillips
joined Southampton FC on 14 August 2003 for £3¼ million. He joined Aston
Villa FC for £1 million on 29 June 2005, before he signed with West
Bromwich Albion FC for £700,000 on 22 August 2006.
Signed for Birmingham City FC on 5 August 2008, and was released after three seasons. So on 10 July 2011, Phillips signed for Blackpool FC,
before he followed his manager to Crystal Palace FC
on loan on 31 January 2013. After securing promotion to the Premier League,
five days short of his fortieth birthday, Phillips signed a year long
contract with Palace, but he left on 3 January 2014 to join Leicester City
FC twelve days later. He announced his intention to retire at the end of
the season on 28 April 2014. |
