The Southampton fans in and around the Transfer Tavern are awaiting their team to begin spending money in order to improve their chances of a season like last never happening again.
Problems unravelled all over the pitch last season for Southampton as they narrowly escaped relegation, which loomed large for the majority of the season. Seasoned internationals in the team need to take a look at themselves in the mirror, then prove in this upcoming season that they can perform a lot better. The Saints have particularly had problems in attack and they lacked real conviction. Therefore, in a bid to put a stop to their offensive troubles, our punters believe that targeting Moussa Konate, who is valued at £5.4 million on Transfermarkt, would be a great addition to help that cause.
The Senegalese forward is currently with his country for the World Cup, helping them to victory in their first game against Poland, which resulted in a 2-1 victory. Donate moved last year to French side SC Amiens, who he has impressed for massively. The 25-year-old scored 13 league goals during his first season there, resulting in interest surrounding the Senegal forward from other Premier League clubs.
Southampton found most of their problems to be in front of goal, with Austin and Long who are usually reliable, not scoring enough which resulted in increased relegation problems. This World Cup period will be a good opportunity for Southampton to scout Konate and see whether he would be the solution to their goalscoring issues.
