Just as you think that the transfer window is very quiet comes news that could see the door at Southampton not just revolving but spinning, but it is, like most moves in this window dependent on several other deals along the way.
footballleagueworld.co.uk are claiming that Wolverhampton Wanderers are about to reignite their interest in Saints striker Che Adams.
Wolves had been hoping to do a deal for former Saints loanee Armando Broja, but it seems that there is not likely to be a deal done for Broja by Wolves or for that matter any other club as long as Chelsea hold out for a whopping £50 million, for a player who in 29 Premier League starts and the same number off the bench has scored just 8 Premier League goals in 58 games in total.
6 of those goals were of course for Southampton where he started 21 games and 11 off the bench.
With Broja being priced out of the market, Wolves are said to be looking again at Che Adams whose goal per game ratio in the Premier league of a goal every 4.96 appearances is better than Broja's 1 every 7.25.
Adams could be bought for something around £6 million as he enters the last few months of his contract.
If Wolves do not come in then Adams is likely to stay put and the only signing into Saints being Manuel Benson from Burnley initially on loan but with an option to buy.
But if the wolf does come knocking at the door and the offer is too good to turn down for both club and player, then Saints have a back up plan, they would of course still sign Benson, but they would also make a move for David Brooks from Bournemouth.
Most Saints supporters might think that if Adams goes then we go for a centre forward, but that seems not to be the case, Adam Armstrong would be moved into the middle, his natural position and Saints would look to have the option of having not only Ryan Fraser on one side of him, but Benson & Brooks.
However Saints are still comfortable that if they had to sell Adams that they could cope if they made only one signing, assuming that would be Benson then they would still have Adam Armstrong in the centre, Fraser & Benson out wide with back up from Sam Amo-Ameyaw and also Sam Edozie & Kamaldeen Sulemana back from injury & Joe Aribo soon to return from AFCON & also Sekou Mara in the wings.
Ideally Saints would keep Adams, but they have several plan B's and are comfortable with all of them.
With the transfer window closing at 11pm on Thursday 1st February there is still a lot of business to be done yet.
