Southampton U18 coach Fleming pleased with new signing Kornelius Hansen

Southampton U18 manager Craig Fleming is delighted with the early season progress of summer signing Kornelius Hansen.

Fleming is pleased with how the Norway Under-17 international has settled at Southampton since joining in the summer.

“He has got great qualities," Fleming told the Saints website.

“He is very clinical in front of goal. He has sniffed out three chances already in the two games he has played, including one in pre-season and obviously against Tottenham when he scored.

“It's difficult when you move away from your family at that age and don't speak the language fluently, but he has been great and settled in very well."

Saints snapped up the striker from Fram Larvik.
