The club must also take ALOT of blame, they have played their side in the media and failed to convince Fonte to sign a new contract
The "Southampton way" also hasn't helped - he's our captain, he is 32 (nearly 33) one of our longest serving players and a regular starter. Put all this together and normally fans would have confidence to say "he's going nowhere"
But we are Southampton and we are a selling club. It was completely feasible the Fonte could be sold by our club and rather than question the club people are simply blaming Fonte!!!
