Kazeem Olaigbe inks pro deal with Southampton

Kazeem Olaigbe has penned pro terms with Southampton.

Arriving in the summer of 2019 from Belgian outfit Anderlecht, the teenager turned 17 last week and now agrees terms on a deal until June 2022.

Saints academy director Matt Hale told the club's website: “Kazeem has been monitored for some time through our European recruitment team.

“He has exciting attacking qualities which have been highlighted already at under-23 level this season. His pace and fluid movement is pleasing on the eye and causes real difficulties for his direct opponents.

“I'm sure Kazeem will have a bright future ahead of him at Southampton FC."
