Dan Seaborne To Go Out On Loan
Dan Seaborne looks set to go out on loan with first team opportunities limited at St Mary's
It doesnt take a qualified UEFA Coach to recognise that Dan Seaborne hasnt had much game time as of late, indeed with only two appearances in the Capital One Cup to his name this season its now been over a year since he has played League football for Saints.
Of course thats been in the main due to his horrific injuries suffered in a nightclub incident, but the writing was already on the wall for him before that, he struggled to get a game in League 1, starting only 10 games in our promotion season from that division, would definately have struggled in the Championship to get much more game time and to be blunt isnt a Premiership quality central defender.
his being the case its likely that Saints will look to move him out on loan to clear the decks for another centre half to come in during the January transfer window.
Clubs that have been rumoured to be showing an interest in him, include Nottingham Forest who are fast becoming a home for ex Saints players and Millwall and regular football would of course be an attraction for Seaborne.
Only stumbling block could be the fact that it would leave Saints short in the central defensive department with only Fonte,Hooiveld and Yoshida dedicated centre backs, however both Fox and Richardson could do stand in jobs if required so that may persuade Saints to let the ex Exeter man out on loan.
Certainly Seaborne would be an attractive loan signing in that he can also play at full back if required, hence the interest from Championship clubs.

Leeds fighting spirit wins through as we beat Swansea to go topLeeds were twice behind in this incredible game at Swansea City, and then seemed to have victory snatched away right at the death. But each time we fought back and our sheer determination finally secured the victory that we needed to finish the weekend on top of the Championship.
Swansea AwaydazeOur visit to Swansea City is on Sunday with a 3pm kick-off, and once again we’re being televised live on Sky Sports, which will be handy for those of us who can’t get to South Wales on a Sunday.
Farke complains bitterly about Firpo suspensionWe had a surprise yesterday morning, as we found out that that Junior Firpo had been given a three match suspension as a result of an incident in the match at Millwall. Our manager has complained about the short notice when he was preparing his team to face QPR, and about the FA’s process itself.
Leeds labour to victory over stubborn QPRWe made hard work of winning this game, but we finally put the match beyond Queens Park Rangers with a second goal deep into injury time, sending the visitors to the bottom of the table.
Farke happy with the performance despite defeatDaniel Farke has claimed that his team were excellent last night, but many others disagree, after we failed to get past an organised defence yet again, and Millwall were able to hang on to all three points.
Millwall AwaydazeOn Wednesday night we can once again look forward to another fun-packed visit to Millwall on Sunday with kick off at 7.45. You’ll find the New Den in a really pleasant part of South-East London, but if you’re not heading this way, there is always the option of watching the game live on Sky Sports plus.
Leeds coast to comprehensive win over PlymouthThe goalscoring was confined to an eight minute period towards the end of the first half, but Leeds were so dominant throughout the entire 90 minutes that Plymouth Argyle didn’t manage a single shot on goal.
Bristol City AwaydazeIt will be an early start if you’re making a day trip to Bristol City on Saturday, as kick-off is at 12.30pm, thanks to our very good friends at Sky Sports. You’ll find Ashton Gate about 2 miles to the south-west of the city centre.
Leeds bring in Guilavogui as experienced backupThe club have made a move to bolster the squad by signing 34-year-old Josuha Guilavogui, who can operate in a number of defensive positions. Subject to obtaining a work permit, he will now be with us until the end of the current season.
