Southampton seek to sell Guido Carrillo

Southampton are seeking to sell Guido Carrillo this summer.

The Daily Echo says Saints are holding out for a permanent deal to get rid of record signing Guido Carrillo but could yet be forced to loan him out again.

The 28-year-old has been one of the biggest transfer flops of recent times with Saints having smashed their club record to land him from Monaco for £19.1m in January 2018.

After just a handful of games without scoring and following the sacking of Mauricio Pellegrino he was deemed surplus to requirements and spent last season on loan with Leganes, reuniting with the former Saints boss, scoring five times in La Liga.

Leganes are keen to try and get Carrillo back for next season and they have formally approached Saints to try and seal another loan.
