Southampton to complete deal for Celtic star Wanyama

Reports suggest that Victor Wanyama's transfer saga will soon end after he flew out from Celtic's training camp in Germany to finalise a move to Southampton.

The Hoops midfielder has been a key target for the Saints this summer with suggestions that the deal had fallen over due to him being unable to agree personal terms.

However, it is believed that the Saints have pursued him feverishly after their £12.5million bid was accepted by the Hoops and a transfer will be sorted in the next day or two.

Kenya international Wanyama has gone from strength to strength after joining Celtic from Belgium club Germinal Beerschot (now Beerschot AC) for £900,000 in 2011.
