Saints winger
Nathan Redmond is on the verge of leaving Southampton. As reported by The Athletic, the former England international has reached an agreement with Besiktas and is set to sign a one-year contract with the Turkish club. The 28-year-old is expected to arrive in Istanbul on Wednesday. The Süper Lig leaders can still strengthen their squad, as the transfer window in Turkey is open until Thursday. According to the report, Fenerbahce and Galatasaray had also made offers for the forward. In Istanbul, Redmond would join fellow countryman Dele Alli as one of the most valuable English players abroad, with a market value of €18 million.

Redmond, who joined Southampton for €13.5 million from Norwich in 2016, was an important player for Saints over the years before losing his regular spot under head coach Ralph Hasenhüttl. In the current season, the left winger made a brief appearance against Tottenham on the first matchday, but did not make the squad after that. According to reports, Bournemouth, Wolves and Everton had been interested in him before Deadline Day in England.
Alli is one of ten new signings at Besiktas, who spent €17.6 million on five players so far. The rest arrived on loan or joined the Turkish giants for free. Across the league, Trabzonspor, Galatasaray and Fenerbahce spent even more than Besiktas so far. Redmond would be one of the most valuable additions in Süper Lig history: only five players were valued higher when they moved to Turkey. Because his contract expires at the end of the season, Southampton will reportedly only receive a nominal transfer for him.
