The England international recently opened up about the situation surrounding his dad, disclosing that he had not seen him for six years.

Philips went on to disclose his desire to help keep his old man out of jail by taking good care of him once he is out.

"I think it was six years since I’d last seen him. It was literally like I’d never been away from him to be honest. He looked a bit older and stuff like that but it was like the last time I saw him," the Man City ace told Mail Online.

"Obviously I mentioned about looking after him. To make sure he is secure, so he doesn’t go straight back into prison like he has in the past. He could’ve asked me for anything: for a car, a house, anything," he added.
