Southampton reach agreement to sign Adam Armstrong

Southampton have finalised a transfer fee with Blackburn Rovers to sign in-demand striker Adam Armstrong, Hampshire Live reports.

The Saints have been interested in the 24-year-old throughout the summer and they have now reportedly reached a transfer agreement.

The south coast outfit have agreed to pay a fee of around £15 million for the striker, who was signed from Newcastle United for just £1.8m three years ago.

Rovers will have to share 40 per cent of the profit with the Magpies as part of the agreement when he arrived from Tyneside.
