Southampton are set to confirm the signing of Norweigan winger Mohammed Elyounoussi from FC Basel, according to the Southern Daily Echo.
The winger left Basel’s training camp in Germany last night, landing at Gatwick airport ahead of his move to Southampton.
The 23 year old has reportedly personal terms ahead of his £16 million move to Southampton from Basel.
The Norwegian looks set to sign for Southampton as Dusan Tadic’s replacement, after the Serbian midfielder left the Saints to join Ajax in the Netherlands.
Basel finished runners up in the Swiss Super League last season, with Elyounoussi scoring 11 goals and getting 15 assists for the Swiss side.
The Moroccan born Norweigan spent two seasons in Basel, winning the Swiss League and Cup double in his first season in Switzerland.
The midfielder started his career in Norway with Sarpsborg 08. After helping his side avoid the drop, Elyounnoussi joined Molde, where he spent three seasons before moving to Basel.
