According to the Mirror, Southampton are set to sign three players on transfer deadline day. We’ve known about striker Manolo Gabbiadini’s apparent signing for a while, but they also state that Nice goalkeeper Mouez Hassan and Spartak Moscow’s Serdar Tasci will sign with the Saints.
Virgil van Dijk remains out, so it’s smart that Southampton have decided to move for a defender, if reports are to be believed. Tasci is a German international, and he’s solid enough at the back and has the required experience. They will be desperate to make sure and sign him as they need depth in any case.
The signings of goalkeeper Mouez Hassan, a 21 year old goalkeeper from French football, is also important because Puel has no true back up after losing Alex McCarthy to injury. He’s been out quite a while, so they’ll be looking to move to fill in that gap.
These three signings could breathe new life into the Saints as they look to climb the table and prepare for their trip to Wembley next month.
