Takumi Minamino has scored just two goals for Southampton on the back of his January loan move from Liverpool, with Saints boss Ralph Hasenhuttl putting those struggles down to collective issues at St Mary’s.
The highly-rated Japan international headed to the south coast during the winter transfer window after finding regular game time hard to come by at Anfield.
He has shown glimpses of what he is capable of, but the 26-year-old is yet to produce his best on a consistent basis and was the first player replaced by Hasenhuttl during a 2-1 defeat to Brighton on Sunday.
