Southampton have made a move for Schalke midfielder Weston McKennie.
Southampton are locked in talks with Schalke over a deal for £20m-rated midfielder McKennie, says Sky Deutschland.
The deal for McKennie may have to be placed on hold for now with Southampton wanting to offload some unwanted players first.
McKennie is believed to have rejected a switch to Hertha Berlin due to his desire to want to take up a new challenge in the Premier League.
The same report has also indicated that personal terms are yet to be agreed, however, despite McKennie's wish to head to England.
