Born on the 30th of March 2002 in the USA, Killian Phillips is a 23-year-old central midfielder who currently represents St Mirren, wearing the number 88 jersey. Standing tall at 6ft 2in (1.9m) and weighing 13 stone 5 lb (85kg), the American brings a significant presence to the middle of the park.
Phillips' footballing journey took a significant step in January 2020 when he joined Drogheda United in the Premier Division in the Republic of Ireland. His maiden season in 2021 proved a productive one, as he made 30 first team appearances and found the back of the net twice in league matches.
One year on, in January 2022, Phillips made a leap to English football as he was transferred from Drogheda United to Crystal Palace in the Premier League. Unfortunately, the details of the transfer fee remain undisclosed. His time at Crystal Palace was short, as he was sent on loan to Shrewsbury Town in England's League One the next year where he made ten appearances and scored once.
Upon returning to Crystal Palace, Phillips was once again sent on loan, this time to Wycombe Wanderers in League One in August 2023. But it was his next loan move, to Aberdeen in the Scottish Premiership in January 2024, which introduced him to Scottish football. His stint, however brief, at Aberdeen saw him make 10 league appearances.
On the completion of his loan, he returned to Crystal Palace in June 2024 but didn't stay for long. In August 2024, Phillips transferred again, this time on loan, to St Mirren in the Scottish Premiership. Till date, in the 2024-2025 season, Phillips has played 35 league matches and has four goals to his name.
Aside from his league engagements, he also participated in the Scottish Cup 2024-2025 for St Mirren, starting in two matches.
