Southampton have reportedly agreed a transfer fee with Standard Liege to sign pacy Malian winger Moussa Djenepo.

According to Sky Sports, Djenepo is is set to undergo a medical in France before obtaining a work permit to play in England.

Djenepo, who will be playing for Mali in the upcoming African Cup of Nations, contributed 10 goals in 25 appearances for Standard Liege in the Belgian First Division A last season - scoring seven and assisting three.

With Saints’ attacking options looking underwhelming at best these past few seasons, Djenepo can play across the front three and will be a welcome addition to Ralph Hasenhuttl’s Southampton squad if the reports are true.
