DONE DEAL: Southampton sign Yeovil keeper Kingsley Latham

Former Yeovil Town goalkeeper Kingsley Latham has signed with Southampton.

Latham, originally from Braunton in North Devon, teamed up with Southampton last month, training with their under-23 team before playing in the 3-1 defeat to their Tottenham Hotspur counterparts on Monday, January 30.

The Glovers' under-18s keeper became the second green and white starlet to be picked up a Premier League club in as many months today (February 3) when he penned a deal with Southampton's academy.

The teenager first caught the eye of Southampton some years ago. He was a member of the top flight club's Chivenor academy development squad in Devon before signing for Torquay.
