We reported on Thursday that Southampton had agreed a deal with Scunthorpe United for Olufela Olomola and his new supporters are delighted with the news. Saints fans, however, are gutted to be losing such a talented striker.

Olomola made just one appearance in the first-team since joining Southampton from Arsenal in 2014, although he was named in the matchday squad on a handful of occasions without coming on.
He fell victim to the stiff competition in the senior side, with Shane Long, Charlie Austin, Guido Carrillo and Manolo Gabbiadini being higher up on Mark Hughes’ pecking order, so he sought a move away for more playing time.
