The Story Is Astori

Saints are once again being linked with Italian international defender Davide Astori who is expected to leave Cagliari at the end of the season.

The speculation linking Saints with the 26 year old is nothing new, Astori was linked in the January transfer window, but the players agents are again working overtime to get their man into the transfer market and perhaps start a dutch auction that will of course result in the potential earning power of their charge increasing and naturally the earnings of his agents as well.

If rumour is to be believed the agents have been talking to the club as well as Napoli and his first club AC MIlan who they say are keen to re sign him if they can.

Astori would undoubtably be an asset to Saints, but if they have to pay a fee in the region of £10 million pounds the question would be whether Saints could get better value at home, our problem this year has been in the centre of defence and already the signing of Vegard Forren looks to be a white elephant, with the player obviously now being fit for the best part of six weeks yet unable to force his way even into a centre of defence that could be described as amongst the weakest in the division, this highlights the need to get in players who are tried and trusted in the Premiership.
