Lille forward Sofiane Boufal is edging closer to joining Southampton, although the Premier League club's boss Claude Puel is refusing to discuss the potential deal.
Boufal's nearing a move according to Lille manager Frederic Antonetti, but Southampton are staying tight-lipped on the matter.
Saints are understood to be nearing completion on the deal to bring 22-year-old Boufal to St Mary's, but Puel refused to be drawn on the situation.
He said: 'It's not possible to speak on a player if he hasn't signed for Southampton.
