Southampton manager Ralph Hasenhuttl is edging nearer Manchester City’s Gavin Bazunu who dazzled on loan at Portsmouth from the Sky Blues over 2021/2022, reports monitored by Megasportsarena.com suggest.
Bazunu is arguably one of the most promising up-and-coming keepers in the country right now, prompting real interest from the Saints and transfer chief Martin Semmens.
Both Ederson and USA international Zack Steffen are ahead of the 20-year-old in Pep Guardiola’s goalkeeping pecking order, potentially opening the door for Southampton as Bazunu seeks more playing time
The deal could be worth up to £15 million as Southampton look to bolster their goalkeeping department.
Bazunu comes with an already-glowing reputation and has been hailed as ‘world class‘ for his performances on a temporary spell at Fratton Park.
Signing the starlet will come as a very shrewd bit of business for Southampton, especially for £15m, as the City man potentially looks ahead to many fine seasons between the sticks at such a young age.
