Southampton have now reached full agreement with Manchester City to sign Sam Edozie.
The agreement has been completed and the player will join Saints in the next hours.
City will have buy back clauses for Edozie as part of the deal with Saints.
Edozie joined City’s academy from Millwall in 2019 and has since developed into one of the club’s most promising talents in their Elite Development Squad.
The winger appeared to be closing in on a permanent move to Bundesliga club Bayer Leverkusen last month, but Southampton have now moved to the front of the queue to land the teenager.
Edozie has impressed at youth level for the Citizens, scoring 14 goals and providing 10 assists in 60 appearances over the last three seasons.
The Lewisham-born attacker has featured only once for Pep Guardiola‘s senior team, playing 65 minutes in the 1-0 defeat to Leicester City in the 2021 Community Shield.
Edozie won the Premier League 2 title with City’s Under-23s team last season and has also gained Champions League experience at youth level.
