The Mirror are reporting that Southampton are interested in Dutch Ajax winger Anwar El Ghazi.
It is reported that the two Liverpool clubs, Everton and Liverpool, are also interested in El Ghazi alongside Southampton.
El Ghazi is rated at £12m and Southampton may go in for him in January for Ronald Koeman to add competition for the likes of Sadio Mane and Dusan Tadic out wide for Southampton. A position that Saints lack a real amount of depth in.
The 20-year-old has already scored an impressive seven goals in just six Dutch league games this season for Ajax. This has brought him to the attention of some top clubs in England.
Although Southampton and Liverpool have both been linked, it was Everton boss Roberto Martinez who went to personally watch El Ghazi play as he looks to bolster his squad in January.
El Ghazi scored nine goals last season and is eligible to play for Morocco, however, has decided to represent his home country of Holland instead for his international future.
