Killian Phillips, born on 30 March 2002 (age 24), is a Republic of Ireland midfielder whose senior career has been shaped mainly at St Mirren. A tall central midfielder at 6ft 3in (1.90m), he has worn squad number 88 in Paisley and has become a regular enough presence to give his career a clear centre of gravity.
His league record at St Mirren stands at 73 appearances and 10 goals across three seasons. The 2024-25 campaign was his most productive in the league, with four goals in 35 appearances, the sort of return that suggests he can offer more than routine midfield traffic.
In 2026-27, Phillips has one league appearance and two league goals for St Mirren, along with four League Cup appearances and one goal, four Scottish Cup appearances, and two Premiership play-off appearances with one goal. Across the season for the club, he has 11 appearances and four goals. He has also made one World Cup qualifying appearance for the Republic of Ireland.
Phillips is still a developing player, but the outline is straightforward: an Irish midfielder with size, some goal threat, and a career to date built overwhelmingly around St Mirren.
