Southampton Take Aim at Liverpool in Cheeky Video Announcing Signing of Che Adams

It's not a bad time to be a Southampton fan. Ralph Hasenhuttl's summer rebuild is now well underway, with their second and third signings of the summer confirmed on Monday.

Much to the delight of fans, the club announced the signing of Birmingham City striker Che Adams, while Danny Ings' move from Liverpool was made permanent soon after - although the former came with an admission that some wounds are yet to entirely heal.

The Ralph Express rolls on!

Departing: Birmingham
Destination: Southampton

Welcome aboard, @CheAdams_! #saintsfc pic.twitter.com/FcE8duLkfd— Southampton FC (@SouthamptonFC) July 1, 2019

In a video confirming Adams' arrival - showing an animation of the striker boarding the 'Ralph Express' alongside the manager, new signing Moussa Djenepo and an assortment of other first team players - the club showed their sense of humour, as a plane emblazoned with the Liverpool logo, piloted by a binocular-clad Jurgen Klopp can be seen following closely behind.
