Striker Fails Southampton Medical

According to the latest reports coming through, rumours that emerged earlier in the day that Ross Stewart has failed his Southampton medical are true and the striker won't be joining Saints.

footballinsider247.com are claiming that Ross Stewart has failed his medical and will now not be joining Southampton.

They say that the issue is the strikers Achilles injury sustained in January that kept him out for the rest of the 2022/23 season.

They also claim that this will now mean that Saints will not entertain selling Che Adams and that he will now remain at the club.

So far there is nothing but silence from Southampton FC and they have made no confirmations either way, they have of course not announced the signing, but nor have they made any statement that the deal is off or why.

Throughout Friday afternoon rumours did the rounds that Stewart had failed the medical, but there were counter rumours that he had in fact passed and that has lead to a lot of confusion, that will hopefully be cleared up one way or the other in the next hour.
