Europa League winner aims to disrupt Southampton’s Lawrence Shankland plans.

Ryan Mason, Southampton’s Europa League-winning assistant coach, plans to inflict a transfer blow on the club by signing Lawrence Shankland.

Southampton may be interested in signing Hearts’ frontman Lawrence Shankland, according to recent reports. Shankland’s age and free agent status were both appealing factors for a Saints transfer, but progress has been slow thus far.

Southampton may be interested in signing Hearts’ frontman Lawrence Shankland, according to recent reports. Shankland’s age and free agent status were both appealing factors for a Saints transfer, but progress has been slow thus far.

Consider this: it’s not every day that one of English football’s most in-form strikers is available at a bargain price, so any further delays could cost Southampton dearly.

And there’s no need to imagine that scenario because former Tottenham Hotspurs assistant manager Ryan Mason is preparing an ambitious move for Shankland. According to the Scottish Sun, Mason hopes to get off to a strong start at West Brom by signing the Scottish finisher.

Lawrence Shankland slips away from Southampton’s transfer radar.

Have you taken careful notice? West Brom will be Southampton’s Championship rivals next season, and a strong start could lead to a promotion challenge ahead of the Saints. Simply put, the same forward Southampton is looking for could lead their opponent’s attack when the two teams meet.

As a result, if Still has given the green light to acquire Shankland, action is required right away. St. Mary’s signings were expected to occur during the second leg of the transfer window.

If this is the board’s final decision, William Boving and other number nines can provide useful options for the present and future. Jay Robinson may even be an outside bet to have his first breakthrough season in the second division.

Attackers are known to generally elicit a massive sense of excitement among fans, and let’s hope that whoever that newcomer is, may end up doing a great job at Southampton.
