Six deadline day signings that Southampton have made in the past
By Marc Walker
Theo Walcott
Back in the summer of 2020, Saints got another late deal done by signing Walcott on a season-long loan deal from Premier League rivals Everton.
He only had a year remaining on his contract at Goodison Park and was signed to provide competition in the squad but also valuable advice to younger players coming through from the youth academy.
Saints then took the chance to sign him permanently on a two-year deal to allow him contribute with more good work on and off the pitch.
To date, he has made 48 appearances across two spells with the club and has eight goals.
