Despite all of these sales generating plenty of money for the Saints, which could allow them to resist offers for other key players next month, some first-teamers could still leave the south-coast side before the end of the upcoming window which could be a blow in their quest to keep up with the likes of Leicester City and Ipswich Town.
Adams is one player who could potentially be on his way out of St Mary’s, having attracted interest from Burnley and Wolverhampton Wanderers, with the latter considering a fresh move for him next month.
“I’m sure his agent will have one view of it, I’ve got one view of it and the ownership will have a different view if an offer comes in that is too good for them to refuse.
“I can’t give a definitive answer, but we are prepared for whatever comes if he is here at the end of the window. If he isn’t, I’m sure we will have replaced him.”
The stance Che Adams needs to take on his Southampton future
Considering Adams has gone periods of the season without a goal, he needs to capitalise on his current goalscoring run and focus on his football at St Mary’s.
If he can perform, there will be bids, so him concentrating on his current club rather than speculation may actually help him to get a move away if he wants that.
You couldn’t blame him if he wanted to seal a move back to the English top flight, but he needs to earn the right to do so.
At the moment, he needs to be doing even more.
It’s not as if he needs to move on for financial reasons either, because even though he could become a free agent at the end of the season which could create uncertainty for him, a contract offer is seemingly on the table at his current club.
