Premier League clubs eye Blackpool's Matt Phillips

Blackpool's Matt Phillips is a reportedly a target for a whole host of Premier League clubs.

The Tangerines will have to fend off interest from the likes of Wigan Athletic, Sunderland, Reading, Everton, Aston Villa and Reading, with each side weighing up a bid, according to Sky Sports News.

The 21-year-old impressed in the last campaign, with a series of outstanding performances as Ian Holloway's side made it to the playoff final.

Holloway is desperate to keep hold of Phillips, as well as teammate Thomas Ince, though the situation could be out of his hands should a substantial offer arrive.

Everton are reported to be the current favourites for the winger's signature, but there is no news on where the Scotland international sees his future.

Phillips joined Blackpool in 2010 from Wycombe Wanderers for an original £350,000 deal that could rise to £700,000.
