Pellegrino admits regrets over his time at Southampton

Former Southampton boss Mauricio Pellegrino has admitted regrets over his time at St Mary's.

The Argentine lasted less than a season, losing his job in 2018.

Speaking to the Coaches Voice, Pellegrino said: “So when the opportunity arose, I came together with Southampton as their head coach.

“They showed me a very ambitious project for the club. A team with a great infrastructure, power and the capacity to sign players.

“It was a very good place to work as a manager, and to carry on my development.

“That season went from a high to a low – my time there ended with eight Premier League fixtures remaining. Some aspects of our time there, we managed well; in others, we obviously made mistakes."
