Profile

 

Phil joined the Liverpool medical team at Melwood in June 2010 as head of physical therapies. 

Having obtained an undergraduate degree and Masters in Sports Physiotherapy at the University of Sydney, Phil spent time working with Irish Olympic Athletes and the Irish Rugby League team prior to spending four years as head physiotherapist with the Australian Socceroos, most recently travelling to South Africa for the 2010 World Cup.

He said: "It's fantastic to be here. This is one of the biggest and most successful clubs in world football and it is the club I've supported for most of my life, so it's an amazing opportunity.

"I'll manage the physiotherapy department and I'll work with the other senior physios here in assessing and treating first-team players. There will be a strong emphasis on injury prevention programmes and along with the physios and medical team we'll all be working to try and get the players out there playing the best they possibly can."
