Southampton and Crystal Palace have been linked with Ademola Lookman this summer, with reports suggesting both sides could pay £20m for Everton’s £23k-per-week winger. The 21-year-old man would not be a wise investment for such a price, however, as he’s been short of form and playing time at Goodison Park.
Southampton have a need for at least one new wide-man this summer. Mohamed Elyounoussi underperformed last season, Josh Sims isn’t a regular in the first-team and Tyreke Johnson featured more for the reserves. The Saints signed Moussa Djenepo to strengthen their wide options and should turn their attentions away from Lookman.
