Southampton have just announced the signing of Jannik Vestergaard, who joins the club on a permanent deal from Borussia Monchengladbach.
Soton have confirmed that Vestergaard has signed a four-year deal at St Mary’s, and will join up with the squad next week to join Mark Hughes’ pre-season plans.
Here’s what the new signing had to say:
It feels great. The deal has been under way a couple of days and I’m very excited now it has finally happened.
I knew of the interest before the World Cup and the club has followed me for quite some time and done a lot of scouting, which is also a good sign for me that they know my strengths and weaknesses.
The degree to which the club wanted me was important in my decision. They had done a lot of research, seen a lot of live games and on video as well. I feel I’m at a really good place to develop.
After seeing the place, I have only seen nice people and smiles on faces. I feel very welcome.
