Yannick Bolasie

A unexpected link saw Saints mentioned as suitors for out-of-favour Everton man Yannick Bolasie.

Goal.com said that the Toffees had put a £7m price tag on the 30-year-old, who spent the 2018/19 campaign on-loan with Aston Villa and Anderlecht.

Newcastle were also said to be targeting him but a Saints move for him would be highly unlikely considering his age.

Across his two loan spells last season, Bolasie netted eight goals and provided eight assists in 38 appearances overall.
