BERMUDASAINT Posted 21 July, 2024 Posted 21 July, 2024 Southampton interested in Slovenia defender Vanja Drkusic Even though every elite club has an extensive scouting network and databases full of information about potential targets, major international tournaments still represent a huge opportunity for players to earn a big move. This summer’s Euro 2024 was no different and a Slovenia defender appears to have caught the eye of Southampton. That is according to Mundo Deportivo, who report that Southampton, Leicester and Sevilla are all ‘interested’ in a move for Vanja. The report also suggests that Drkusic is valued at a bargain fee of just £3 million, meaning he could prove another astute bit of business for Southampton. Interest in Drjusic could merely be Southampton being opportunistic in trying to sign a player who has impressed them for a bargain fee. However, it could also mean a defender is set to leave the club and that will be the worry as Jan Bednarek enters the final year of his contract.
