We are after Italian defender Davide Astori for 8 million according to sky sports news, is this old news or fresh good news ?
 
BBC and other press confirming our interest in Astori.Southampton have offered £8m for Italian international defender Davide Astori, 25, but face fierce competition from Serie A duo Napoli and Juventus.
 
Anyone else hoping this wont be a Ramirez Mk 2 situation.... I would love to wake up tomorrow and find that Cortese had picked up the phone, offered the money at which point the Cagliari president agreed all terms and conditions there and then, the player arrived Wednesday for a medical and passed and was presented at the next home game. Surely after Gaston, we are owed an easy one...?
 
This is Saints...nothing is ever easy. We will have signed someone according to the media, he will arrive for the medical (scheduled to take no more than 30 days) and then his mother won't give her written permission until she is bought a house in le Paz.
 
As I suspected then..... A month of déjà vus and cold sweats coming up everytime I read this site!!!! But I suppose it's better than the bad old days when news was "leaked" out by the old regime and we ended up with players like Delgado et al..... UTS...
