Saints Have £19.5 million Bid Accepted

According to major media sources Saints have had a big bid accepted for one of their January transfer targets.

According to many major media outlets including Sky Sports Saints have come to agreement with Monaco for the transfer of striker Guido Carrillo with the two clubs agreeing a fee of 22 million euros which equating to around £19.5 million would eclipse the club record transfer fee paid to Juventus for Mario Lemina last summer.

Carrillo who at 6ft 2 is described as a striker in the mould of Pelle, in that he is not only able to score goals but also bring others into play with deft touches and flicks and that is something that Saints have missed in the past 18 months.

That seems to be the first piece in the jigsaw puzzle with the second being a pacy attacking wide player with Quincy Promes high on Saints list.

The worrying thing though is Saints are not being linked with many central defenders at present and in my opinion this is as much a problem area as our lack of goals.

Saints seem readly and willing to spend a fair chunk of the incoming cash from Virgil Van Dijk although if they bring in two or three in the next week it will leave us with a big squad and one that would need to be trimmed in the summer, if only to provide not only places in the squad but money for those transfers.
