According to Hampshire Live, Southampton could make a move for Duje Caleta-Car as they look to replace Jannik Vestergaard.

The Lowdown: Vestergaard set to leave

Vestergaard has completed a move to Leicester City (lcfc.com), which of course means Southampton will need another defender in the heart of Ralph Hasenhuttl's team.

The back-line looked shaky to say the least in the opening weekend of top flight action, as Rafa Benitez's Everton pounced on mistakes to rack up three goals at Goodison Park.

The Latest: Saints could move for Caleta Car

As per Hampshire Live, the Saints could make a move for Caleta-Car this summer.

West Ham (L'Equipe) and Tottenham (SportKlub) have previously been linked with a move for the Croatia international, but there has not yet been any concrete news in regards to his future.

The Verdict: Good option

Losing Vestergaard, who had grown in importance under Hasenhuttl after a shaky start, is a blow to the St. Mary's Stadium outfit, but Caleta-Car would be a worthy replacement if they were able to make a move.

Valued at £22.5m (Transfermarkt), he was set to replace Virgil van Dijk at Liverpool (rousingthekop.com) when the Netherlands international was injured last year before a deal fell through (RMC).

He has won four league titles, albeit with Red Bull Salzburg in Austria, and he now plays for Marseille, one of France's biggest and most historic clubs. He was a part of Croatia's squad at the World Cup in 2018 as his country made the final, and he also featured at Euro 2020.

There is clearly some talent in there, and at 24 years of age, he has plenty of time left ahead of him to develop.

It remains to be seen what becomes of the defender, but the constant links to the Premier League suggest this one may be something to keep an eye on.

In other news, Southampton fans were livid with this man's comments.
