​Southampton prepared to lose money on Carrillo

Southampton are willing to take a loss on record signing Guido Carrillo as they seek to trim their wage bill.

The Saints want to remove fringe players who are high earners, and Carrillo fits the bill to a tee.

The 28-year-old arrived for £19.1 million in January 2018 but only managed seven Premier League appearances since then, scoring a single goal.

Per the Daily Mirror, Carrillo is wanted by Leganes, Olympiacos and Boca Juniors on loan, while Southampton would prefer a permanent transfer.

The former Monaco man is also hoping to seal a move away from the seaside club, as he looks to rebuild his career after a disappointing year and a half in England.
