SAINTS are pushing to conclude a deal to sign highly-rated New England Revolution midfielder Noel Buck on loan until January.
The 19 year year England youth international is a regular fixture for the Revs in the MLS having made his debut in 2022.
The proposed deal contains an option to sign Buck on a permanent basis, in a similar move to that of Porto's Ussumane Djalo in January.
Saints are confident of finalising the deal for the midfielder, who is eligible to represent England, the USA and Wales.
