Southampton want to sign Chelsea's Tino Anjorin on a permanent deal.
The 20-year-old attacking midfielder is on a season-long loan at Lokomotiv Moscow who have a £17m option to buy and is recovering from a broken metatarsal.
Anjorin has scored one goal in nine appearances so far for the Russian outfit.
Blues boss Thomas Tuchel revealed before the season began that he was 'sad' Anjorin did not get to show his ability in the second half of last season.
Tuchel said: 'I'm a bit sad because he trained so well for us in the last half a year.
