Tom Phillips is "very close" to heading to Hawthorn, according to SEN Chief Sports Reporter Sam Edmund.
The 24-year-old wingman has been reportedly on the trade table for several weeks, with both North Melbourne and Hawthorn showing interest in the last 24 hours.
According to Edmund, the Hawks appear to have won the race for the contracted Magpie.
“They (Hawthorn) were the ones that shown interest initially, before they went cold," he told SEN Drive.
“If it is to be $350,000 per season like the Hawks are saying, (that would be a steal).”
Phillips played 15 games for the Pies in 2020.
Now believe Tom Phillips is heading to Hawthorn. Hearing that deal very close to being finalised given Jaidyn Stephenson and Atu Bosenavulagi have gone to North Melbourne.
