“An exciting young talent” – Carlton Palmer reacts as Newcastle plot Southampton transfer move
The pundit has voiced his thoughts on a current conundrum at Southampton, with transfer interest mounting
Southampton had the customary ups and downs that come with having a big portion of their playing roster seek the exit door in the immediate wake of relegation.
Some of the club’s more high-profile departures included then-one-club man James Ward-Prowse, Tino Livramento, Romeo Lavia, Mohammed Salisu, and even Nathan Tella towards the end of the summer transfer window, the latter of whom had actually played in the Championship for Southampton on three occasions.
