The Southampton star who scored a wonderful solo goal in the weekend against West Bromwich Albion was, reportedly, pursued by Serie A teams- Inter Milan and Fiorentina.

His agent Yvan Me Lee revealed:

"He feels good now, he's just waiting to play more.
"In August we had clubs like Inter, Fiorentina and Celta Vigo, who know what they're doing when it comes to buying players, who all wanted to buy him at any cost.
"Southampton said no, though, and now he's proving he's someone who can win points."
