DONE DEAL: Southampton agree deal for Standard Liege winger Djenepo

Southampton have come to an agreement with Standard Liege to sign Mali winger Moussa Djenepo.

The 20-year-old has agreed a four-year deal with the Premier League side and his arrival is subject to the relevant paperwork being completed on 1 July.

"He is an exciting player, with tremendous pace and good finishing," Saints boss Ralph Hasenhuttl said.

"We have been impressed with how he has adapted to football in Europe and the impact he has had in many games, and we had an interest in him as recently as January, so I am pleased we are able to bring him into the club," Hasenhuttl added.

"I think he will be an excellent fit for our style of play and shape, and these are the important characteristics we must look for."
