Werder Bremen rival Galatasaray for Southampton midfielder Lemina

Werder Bremen are eager to take Mario Lemina off Southampton's hands.

The midfielder is available from Saints after spending last season on-loan with Galatasaray in Turkey. Gala are keen on bringing Lemina back to Istanbul for next season.

“The technical team wants Lemina in the squad. The player's commitment is on our agenda," said Galatasaray president Mustafa Cengiz yesterday.

However, Werder chief Frank Baumann has also confirmed their interest in Lemina.

Werder would welcome a loan deal for the player, who has a contract with Saints to 2022.
