Does his return to form and confidence after a very positive loan spell not make it any better?

That isn't true. A country's transfer window only applies to incoming players into their clubs. They are free to sell players to other clubs in other countries outside of their own window.

It wasn't confirmed until today

Should judge a player on his own merits rather than how his club did in one season. Liverpool signed Andrew Robertson from a relegated Hull City. Lallana and Schneiderlin were relegated with Saints to League One.

Do you think Boufal wouldn't have end product if playing vs Championship defenders and goalkeepers?

In other takeover news...

We knew it already, but Celtic is a no go with them spending £4.5m on a new keeper...

Ramsdale isn't on loan. Bournemouth signed him from Sheffield United for £1m in 2017. He is being linked with a transfer back to Sheffield United.

Celtic are spending £4.5m on goalkeeper Vasilis Barkas from AEK Athens. He flew into Scotland yesterday. Neil Lennon has already said that Forster's intention is to win his place back at Saints, so it isn't a surprise Celtic are signing the Greek international keeper. “We’re disappointed with the Fraser issue. It’s kind of bizarre the way it’s panned out. The impression we got was that he wanted to stay at Southampton and fight for his place, which is the player’s prerogative. But we had been led to believe something else.” - Neil Lennon

If Vestergaard is being sold and they want 4 senior centre backs why not have 2 right-footed and 2 left-footed?

Intra-squad matches and a friendly vs Bristol City...

By 'met the press' do you mean a press conference and non club media interview? Because those are rare and most signings never have those. For Bellingham he has had this...

That is just a copy and paste rehash of the Sky Sports link so isn't anything new.

I'm not sure why you think that is the club's ' new media approach'. If a newspaper links Saints to a player, that doesn't make it the 'club's approach'. The '£400k striker backup striker signing from the Spanish 2nd division' is in reality a 17 year old left back signing for Saints academy and not for the Saints 1st team.

Yes, if you score an away goal it counts as a goal. 😉

Hasenhuttl answered that in the post match press conference. I have made the video start slightly before that question is asked...
