GGalpin Posted 20 July, 2018 Share Posted 20 July, 2018 Been linked to Besiktas. http://www.fanatik.com.tr/2018/07/20/besiktas-a-sofiane-boufal-surprizi-1385173 Beşiktaş'a Sofiane Boufal surprise Besiktas' last name in the search for right-back, 10-point and goal scorer was Sofiane Boufal wearing Southampton form in England Premier League. July 20, 2018, Friday 09:04 It was learned that the 24-year-old Moroccan player who served in position 10 was offered black-and-white club by the managers. It was mentioned that Southampton could be hired with the option to purchase Boufal 'ın for £ 18.7 million from Lille two seasons ago, but the black-and-whites have not yet made an official attempt to transfer it. British team in 30 official appearances Boufal 2 goals last season, has signed a 2 assists. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VectisSaint Posted 20 July, 2018 Share Posted 20 July, 2018 Good, only need to get rid of Redmond now and bring in a new winger/AM and things will look good. The sources of our problems last season now 80% gone (Tadic, Boufal, Carrillo and Pellegrino), one to go. No time for Boufal, talented individual, but adds nothing to the team, all about self in a team game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pamplemousse Posted 20 July, 2018 Share Posted 20 July, 2018 Another dreadful signing. Our only hope is for these failures is that they play reasonably well for their new clubs and we can claw back some of the millions wasted. Didn't really work with Clasie though, let's hope Boufal and Carrillo's loan moves yields better results for us in terms of getting rid of them for good.

Unbelievable Jeff Posted 20 July, 2018 Share Posted 20 July, 2018 Good idea by the club sending them to Spain - the league is so weak outside the top 3 that both Boufal and Carrillo should do well as long as they play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Professor Posted 20 July, 2018 Share Posted 20 July, 2018 Confirmation on the OS is the best news we could have hoped for. Whether we will ever get any of the fee back will depend on how he performs. He leaves with an impression of ill-discipline and not being a team player, as much as performance. He needs to get control otherwise his pay will slump after his Saints’ contract period ends, so it’s in his own interests to make himself wanted elsewhere.

To be fair, it seems that it is one incident that's caused the issue, over two years. I think everyone is being a bit harsh - especially as Sparky doesn't have a reputation of being like by anyone, and does have a reputation of falling out with players.

No time for Boufal, talented individual, but adds nothing to the team, all about self in a team game.Don't agree with Tadic. He was critical to us staying up and looked a rejuvenated player. And I'm hoping Redmond will be good under Hughes. Agree with the others, though. I'd guess with Carrillo, Tadic and Boufal gone now, and Armstrong, Elyounoussi in, we've got room for one more AM / striker.

Lighthouse Posted 20 July, 2018 Share Posted 20 July, 2018 Another problem with the obscene amount of money in the PL I guess, it's very difficult to offload players you don't want to foreign clubs. Osvaldo, Clasie, Carrillo and now Boufal. This must surely mean there's another attacking player incoming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't really work with Clasie though, let's hope Boufal and Carrillo's loan moves yields better results for us in terms of getting rid of them for good. So that is £37m ish in transfer fees 'wasted' although you could say that Boufal earned us 2 points with his goal v WBA. I suppose we will get reasonable loan fees for both players and most/all of their wages paid by the two clubs On the surface though two abysmal signings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperSAINT Posted 20 July, 2018 Share Posted 20 July, 2018 He's either going to tear that league up, or get sent back before the loan is due to expire. Not selling is disappointing, assuming we needed to raise capital for other signings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hasper57saint Posted 20 July, 2018 Share Posted 20 July, 2018 What evidence do you have that he has breached his contract? He didn't 'breach his contract ' he 'frustrated it' which means he didn't fulfill his agreed obligations. If and when he goes then good luck to him.Apart from his wonder goal what else did he contribute to us staying up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lighthouse Posted 20 July, 2018 Share Posted 20 July, 2018 Boufal, Carrillo, Forster., Clasie...not to mention Osvaldo and Gaston...it might be time to stop laughing at West Ham. Never, so long as I still draw breath (and they have Andy Carroll). Forster, Clasie and Gaston are hardly embarrassments. FF was in the England squad a was decent under Koeman. Clasie wasn't particularly expensive and was worth a try. Gaston may have been a flop overall but his goals in his first season would probably earn him Saints golden boot these days. Those goals and performances were instrumental in keeping us up IMO, gave us a boost when we were bottom of the table at the start of the season.
