Southampton striker Manolo Gabbiadini is being lined up for a return to Italy this summer.

Corriere di Bologna says Serie A clubs are queuing to bring the former Napoli forward back to Italy in the coming months.

Bologna are pushing hard to seal personal terms with Gabbiadini's minders, but face stiff competition.

Also keen are Lazio, Torino and Sampdoria as Saints weigh up whether to sell.

The final decision is expected to be left to new Saints manager Mark Hughes - though only if he keeps the club safe from relegation this season.
