Transfer gossip: Wszolek now linked with Southampton

Italian transfer-gossip website TuttomercatoWeb, which recently claimed Chelsea were interested in Pawel Wszolek, now claim Southampton are looking to sign him from QPR in the summer.

Chelsea were linked with the Polish winger on deadline day – as Rangers were in fact preparing to announce they had signed him on a permanent deal from Hellas Verona.

Now it is not only claimed that Southampton are interested, but that the Saints have already opened talks with a view to signing him at the end of the season.

Wszolek has impressed since arriving on loan last summer and has agreed a two-and-a-half-year contract at Loftus Road.

His representatives in Italy have been touting him for a potential move to the Premier League, and Chelsea and Southampton have duly been linked.
