Saints Transfer Latest ! Agent Claims He Has Held Talks !

As the transfer rumour mill starts to warm up ahead of the summer window opening in the next few weeks, it emerges that talks are being already held about one big move.

Armindo Tué Na Bangna is a winger currently playing for Turkish club Galatasaray but goes under the name of Bruma.

He has in the past been linked with Tottenham Hotspur but now his agent is claiming that the North London club are not in the running at least not yet, but he has been speaking to Leicester City and Southampton.

Bruma who is 22 and Portugese started his career at Sporting Lisbon and then joined Galatasaray in 2013, but his career took time to get under way in Turkey, partly through injury and he spent last season on loan in Spain with Real Sociedad.

This season he returned to Galatasaray and has really started to establish himself at the club, leading to rumours linking him with the Premier League.

His agent is quoted as saying.

"We are not in talks with Tottenham,”

"Southampton and Leicester City have registered an interest and we have held talks,"

"Bruma is keen on the Premier League and we will be holding further talks next month. Everything will become clearer regarding his future in May,”

It would appear that Bruma is about to enter the last year of his original five year deal so would be presumably available at a knock down price, however the Turkish club and his agent seem keen to tout him around and get the best deal for both of them.

Only problem with this transfer is why Saints would be going for another winger, at the moment they have three genuine experienced wide players in Tadic, Boufal and Redmond plus the emerging Josh Sims, if Bruma was to join Saints then that would leave the club top heavy with wide players unless one or two were to leave.
