Ronald Koeman\'s Southampton have agreed a deal to sign Feyenoord striker Graziano Pelle. The 28-year-old has signed a three year contract at St Mary\'s and joins as a replacement for Rickie Lambert.

  • Confirmed Man Utd line-up vs Liverpool, Matheus Cunha starts
  • Chelsea quoted price to sign Igor Thiago
  • The striker, who becomes Southampton\'s second signing of the summer and follows Dusan Tadic to the club, arrives for a fee of approximately 13 million Euros.

    Koeman said of the deal: \"We needed a good player in that position. He\'s a tall striker with a lot of movement and he\'s fast. He\'s a player who gives confidence to the team because he keeps the ball.\"
