    Christian 'Chucho' Benitez

    Club America -> Southampton

    £2.5M all up front fee.

    Proposed 2 year contract.

    After a not completely succesful spell in the Premiership with Birmingham City in the 2009-10 season, and having returned to Latin America, playing for Mexican outfit Club America, Chucho is set to give the Premiership one last chance with new boys Southampton.
    Chucho is said to have unfinished business with the Premiership, and Southampton are the perfect team for him, as they are searching for a forward to accompany club record signing Jay Rodriguez, playing just behind the target man and club talisman Rickie Lambert in the newly adopted 4-3-2-1 formation.

    Fees are said to have been agreed between Club America and Southampton and personal terms are now being discussed.


    who was this.... lol

    I see Blackpool have signed 3 players including a winger. Does that indicate Phillips or Ince are going?

    Italian Journalist Carlo Laudisa of Gazzeta Dello Sport says:

    "Increasing competition for Ramirez #. After Tottenham # # also comes forward the Uruguayan Southampton for the Bologna player."

    "Serious pitfall of the #Southampton Ramirez. He is toward it. Now the word of #Bologna"


    An Italian student/journo covering the story tweeted:

    "Southampton makes offer for Ramirez and he may accept. A newly promoted English team have more money to spend than Inter."


    He believes Bologna want €20m for Ramirez due a 30% sell on clause with his former club, Penarol.

    I'm not suprised by that - Inter's wage bill is enormous.

    I'm starting to get this little inkling of belief that we may actually sign Ramirez. If we do I think a lot of pundit's jaws would drop. Sod that MY jaw would drop - it would be an astonishing signing.

    The Italian football guy says Ramirez is only on €600k p/a. Now that's only roughly £471.5k per year.

    We already have players earning more, I guess it could happen, he would have re-sale value too.

    Yeh but that could have been said with so many players we've been linked with over the summer. Repeated F5s is the saints fans only hope now.

    £9k a week. Less than almost all of our first team players.

    Time to come in with £25k a week! Still seems a long shot but interesting that some press outlets are starting to report it.

    I see Birmingham are saying we made a £6m bid for Butland, they now say he's worth £18m. Now that is inflation!

    On another note, Nixon is saying we have renewed our interest in Scott Dann - and he says he has heard a figure of £4.5m bandied about.

    Supposedly B'burn wanted £6m and we offered £3m initially.
