Manolo Gabbiadini wants to return to Italy this summer with both Lazio and Bologna chasing the Southampton striker.
The 26-year-old has endured a difficult season on the south coast, bagging just four goals in 29 appearances in all competitions.
His poor form has led to suggestions that the Saints are willing to offload the striker at the end of the season and he is not short of options.
Gabbiadini's preference is to return to Italy, according to Gazzetta dello Sport, where there is interest from Lazio and Bologna.
And while his future at the Saints remains unclear, interest in the striker is expected to grow heading into the summer window.
