Southampton are aiming to enhance their creative capabilities in the squad this summer and have reportedly made an offer for a German playmaker.
After securing a significant victory against Leeds United in the play-off final, which could be worth between £135 million to £265 million, Southampton will have more flexibility in the transfer market. However, they still need to be cautious with their spending.
In their last stint in the Premier League, Southampton’s recruitment was disappointing, with high-profile signings like Paul Onuachu, Duje Caleta-Car, and Kamaldeen Sulemana failing to deliver. This led to their relegation and left the club with a large wage bill in the Championship. This summer, they need to recruit more wisely to avoid repeating past mistakes.
According to BILD via Sport Witness, Southampton have made an “attractive offer” for Werder Bremen’s Leonardo Bittencourt. Bittencourt, valued at £2.1 million, has been with Bremen for five years and is reportedly ready for a new challenge.
This potential signing is interesting as Bittencourt, though versatile and fitting well into Russell Martin’s system, is over 30 and may not align with Southampton’s usual strategy of signing younger players for future profit. His arrival could indicate a shift in their recruitment approach.
