Those would not be his only options. He could choose to sit out his contract and leave for £0 in July 2021.

It is rolling over when other clubs have apparently bid higher.

Why should Saints roll over and give in?

That isn't viable or sensible.

Wolves are possibly selling 29 year old Raul Jimenez for £72m! https://as.com/futbol/2020/07/30/internacional/1596126691_516444.html?id_externo_rsoc=CM_ES_FB Ings is younger and scored more goals in not as many PL games this season.

If you mean Folarin Balogun, he isn't out of contract this summer. His contract expires 30th June 2021, so Saints would need to pay a transfer fee. He is also a year younger than Obafemi, so why loan out Obafemi only to bring a younger less experienced striker in to be in the 1st team?

I provided evidence and a question. That is still an answer. 😛

No it wasn't, the question was 'Has there been a single credible link to McKennie?' I provided an answer to that question.

A return to confidence is a return to confidence no matter what league it is in. He appears to mentally be in a much better place now. A save of a shot is a save of a shot no matter what league he is in. Why does it matter if it was a Rangers player or a Brighton player who took the shot?

Depends if you think the journalist Ryan Taylor is credible or not...

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.
