I would like to see some pacy defenders added to the squad, and of course a quality GK, I appreciate if we are to make an impact in the Premier, we need impact players!"

Southampton close in on Jay Rodriguez

Saints transfer target Jay Rodriguez Saints transfer target Jay Rodriguez

Saints have had a £7m bid for Jay Rodriguez accepted by Burnley.

As revealed last week, the two clubs were in discussions regarding a deal worth in excess of £6m for the striker.

The Clarets, who are resigned to losing the 22-year-old this summer, had valued the player at £8m.

But with the forward having just one year left on his Turf Moor contract, the Championship side have been willing to accept a smaller sum.

If Rodriguez does move to Saints, the fee would break the club's long-standing transfer record, set when they signed Rory Delap for £4m from Derby in 2001.
