Career

Watford

Phillips played in the Chelsea academy from the under-10 to under-14 age-groups. Following his release by Chelsea he joined Watford after a week-long trial.[2] He signed a one-year professional contract in May 2019 at the end of his scholarship, with the option of a further year.[4] In August 2019 Phillips joined National League South side Hemel Hempstead Town on loan until January 2020,[5] but damaged ankle ligaments early in the season and was out for six months.[6]

Phillips signed a one-year contract extension in June 2020.[7] He made his Watford debut against Middlesbrough on 11 September as an 89th minute substitute for Domingos Quina. The match was Watford's first game in the Championship following relegation from the Premier League.[8] He made his first club start on 15 September against Oxford United in the EFL Cup.[9]

In July 2021, Phillips joined Gillingham on a season-long loan.[10] He made his debut in a 1–1 draw at home to Lincoln City on 7 August 2021.[11] Phillips was released by Watford at the end of the 2021–22 season.[12]

St Johnstone

Phillips signed a two-year contract with Scottish Premiership club St Johnstone in August 2022.[13]

International career

Phillips is of Trinidadian descent and first expressed an interest in representing Trinidad and Tobago in 2019.[14]

In March 2021, Phillips was called up by Trinidad and Tobago for the first time. He was named in their provisional squad for World Cup qualifiers later that month against Guyana and Puerto Rico.[15] He made his debut on 25 March 2021 against Guyana.[16]
