Tonny Vilhena close to Southampton move

20-year-old Dutch starlet Tonny Vilhena will today complete a move to Southampton. The Feyenoord player happened to play under Saints' coach Ronald Koeman back in the Eredivisie.

It is assumed that Vilhena will be brought in as a replacement for Jack Cork, who made a switch to Swansea City last week.

Vilhena has represented every Netherlands' youth side and is hopeful that a transfer to the Premier League will help his full international prospects. It is understood that the 5 foot 9 midfielder will sign a four and a half year contract at St Mary's and will join the Saints for a fee of 7.5 million euros.
