Saints secure the signing of Midfielder MICHU on a four year contract, despite terms being agreed with other premiership suitors, the top scoring Midfielder in La Liga last season opted for Southampton after being impressed by the clubs financial stability, facilities and the likelihood of playing. The fee is undisclosed but thought to be around 4m Euros.

Saints are looking to secure the services of Gary Madine from Sheffield Wednesday. Gary Madine has been described as one natural talent and could soon be on his way to St Marys however Sheffield Wednesday will not be looking to sell him for the cheap. Can Saints get the Goal Machine as he is called at Hillsborough

Believable2 Unbelievable16

Agree9 Disagree3

Michu signing to be announced on friday.

Believable10 Unbelievable10

I really hope this is true but doubt it!
I know we have been linked and he would be a great attacking signing! From

Agree7 Disagree1

The Michu signing will be announced on Sunday actually.

Agree5 Disagree1

Why would we buy a other attacker that doesn't suit the Southampton way- young English and good

Agree0 Disagree5

He is an attacking MIDFIELDER.

Have you heard of Fabregas??

Agree4 Disagree1

Actually it wont get announced as hes going to stoke

Agree5 Disagree9

Wheres the proof that he's going to Stoke?

Agree1 Disagree0

Jesus, why would he go to stoke - for weight traning and hoof ball. Get a grip, there is more chance of him joining West Ham than that.

Saints are "apparently" showing interest in Kim Kallstrom, currently playing at Olympique Lyonnais. Seen as useful cover on the left for Adam Lallana, as we all know, he plays on the left, he plays on the right, Adam Lallana makes Messi look.....

Believable4 Unbelievable10

Seriously, we are going to sign sweden's best midfielder as cover for Adam..... Come on dude, he sure as hell won't be cover, at least get a realistic rumour going.

Agree10 Disagree2

People 'apparently' make things up on this website

Agree15 Disagree1

No they don't, what are you talking about. I have never seen a post on this page that I haven't taken as gospel!

It looks increasingly unlikely that Saints will sign GK Jack Butland from Birmingham after a bid of £6million was knocked back by the West Midlands outfit. Cortese may not wish to bid any higher for a player who has not played above League 1 level as of yet.
Source: Birmingham Mail

Believable6 Unbelievable12

From what I've heard. There has in fact been NO bid for Butland made by Saints. Is all more crap from the tabloids

Agree11 Disagree4

Whilst I can see Cortese making an eye popping offer for a player that offers something unique, can't see it for a GK who may sit on the bench for much of next season.

Agree6 Disagree1

Very surprised if SFC bid that much!

Agree5 Disagree2

We have giving up after having 2 bids knocked back and are starting to look into Fraser Forster.

Agree3 Disagree3

Why gamble 6 million on an inexperienced young lad when you could pick up Alan Mcgregor for free?

Agree5 Disagree4

Sky sports news confirmed saints have had a bid rejected

Agree0 Disagree4

I have to say that even though he would be a fantastic signing I can't see us bidding that much. It all depends on how much money we actually have. We will certainly see a CB coming in and I imagine a RB as well. Also there seem to have been a fair few midfielders and RM linked with us.

I am still waiting on either of these signings we are supposed to sign by the end of today. Shows what a load of guff gets posted on these boards ';.;'

Agree5 Disagree1

Saints may well have bid £6miilion but doubt its cash up front. More likely in installments like £2mill now, £2 mill if we stay up and £2 mill depending on appearances, England caps etc. I dont know this but, the bid details are normally more complicated than is quoted.

Agree3 Disagree0

I have to commend NA & NC for their choices so far, they are sticking with thier poliicy of investing in the future, the young talentend future super stars! We will attack the premier league with unproven players, with promising youth as back-up, a bold gamble indeed. We have grown a few recently and had to let them go - (bale, walcot, chaimberlain) , we remember these when they played for us and how they stood out when they were on their game. We need Stand outs! Lallanna is our newly crowned standout - he is the one that would be snapped up by the big boys like the rest of our stars . But we get to keep him and add to our talented team with new young standouts! So far We have been willing to pay big for the best young talent around, English first because we know these young palyers the best- 7ml for jay rod - prob one of best young forwards in the champions league.
- 6 ml Butland - best young England keeper (Engalnd international), you see their commitment to get the best! 6ml to get their man! WOW. Can't wait to see who they rate as the next young standout of the english league! and then surely there will be a few foriegn young STANDOUTS to be brought in!. With promising young talent just about to break through from our STANDOUT academy, we are "all-in" youth!

^^ What he said. Exciting times to be a saints fan!

It was NA HIMSELF that said he hoped to have a few more signings by today. NOT us fans.

Agree1 Disagree1

NA did not say that. He said there might be one or 2 more additions by the start of the season or MAYBE pre-season.
