Club career

[edit]

Phillips signed for the Charlton Athletic academy when he was eight years old.[4] He signed his first professional forms in the summer of 2013 at the age of 17 and joined Conference South side Whitehawk on a one-month loan on 8 November 2013.[5] He returned to the Conference South on a one-month loan with Bishop's Stortford on 3 January 2015.[6] He joined National League club Cheltenham Town on a six-month loan in July 2015.[7] He started every game for the "Robins", keeping ten clean sheets in 26 games, and had his loan extended until the end of the 2015–16 season.[8] He picked up an injury in March 2016, and missed the end-of-season run-in as Cheltenham secured promotion as National League champions.[9] He signed a new two-year contract with Charlton in May 2016.[10]

On 16 October 2020, Phillips joined Cardiff City for an undisclosed fee.[11]

On 27 July 2022, Phillips joined Belgian First Division A side Oostende on a season-long loan deal.[12] At the end of the 2022–23 season, he was released by Cardiff.[13]

On 4 July 2023, Phillips signed for Rotherham United on a two-year deal.[14]

On 16 June 2025, it was announced that Phillips would sign for EFL Championship club Hull City upon the expiration of his contract with Rotherham at the end of the same month. His new contract is set to last two years, with the option of an additional third available.[3]
