Southampton have signed Republic of Ireland left-back Ryan Manning after his exit from Swansea City.
He is the Saints' first signing since their relegation from the Premier League and links up with boss Russell Martin, who was his manager at Swansea.
The 27-year-old, who was out of contract at Swansea, has signed a four-year deal at St Mary's.
"We've beaten competition from two clubs in the Premier League for him," said Martin.
"I thought the lure of that would make it difficult for us, but he's come here because he knows the work and he believes in it.
