# Southampton fans react to Milot Rashica links

Southampton have been[linked](https://www.weser-kurier.de/werder/werder-bundesliga_artikel,-klopp-lockt-rashica-_arid,1898390.html)with a summer swoop for Werder Bremen forward Milot Rashica this week.

According to [German outlet Weser Kurier](https://www.weser-kurier.de/werder/werder-bundesliga_artikel,-klopp-lockt-rashica-_arid,1898390.html), the Saints, along with Leipzig, Liverpool and Roma are all interested in the winger, who is[said](https://www.weser-kurier.de/werder/werder-bundesliga_artikel,-klopp-lockt-rashica-_arid,1898390.html)to have a release clause of €38m.

Although, Werder Bremen are reportedly looking for a fee in [excess of £22m](https://www.weser-kurier.de/werder/werder-bundesliga_artikel,-klopp-lockt-rashica-_arid,1898390.html) for the winger.

This season, Rashica has[scored](https://www.whoscored.com/Players/289014/Show/Milot-Rashica) seven times and provided three assists in 18 games for Bremen in the Bundesliga, whilst also managing to score three goals in three games in the German Cup.

[The report also claims](https://www.weser-kurier.de/werder/werder-bundesliga_artikel,-klopp-lockt-rashica-_arid,1898390.html) that Southampton could be used as a stepping stone by Rashica.

He could reportedly sign for the Saints and look to develop on the south coast before then looking to join a club of Liverpool’s stature, as many players – [Sadio Mane, Virgil Van Dijk, Adam Lallana, Dejan Lovren, Nathaniel Clyne](https://www.lfchistory.net/Transfers/ByClub/25) – have done in the past.

These Southampton fans reacted with mixed opinions to the news on[Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/groups/103097579846206/)…

[Dan Coombs:](https://www.facebook.com/groups/103097579846206/) “You lost me at £22m. We don’t have the players to sell to raise that kind of cash.”

[Maarc Smiiffy:](https://www.facebook.com/groups/103097579846206/) “Why another winger? I think we all know there are other positions that need to be prioritised.”

[Jennifer Howard:](https://www.facebook.com/groups/103097579846206/) “If Liverpool are interested we’ve got no chance.”

[Jacob Lillywhite](https://www.facebook.com/groups/103097579846206/): “Very good player. Rachica from Werder Bremen. £22m for him is an absolute bargain.”

[Andy Batchelor:](https://www.facebook.com/groups/103097579846206/) “A good player and such a player we should be looking at and go get him please.”

[Ray Newman](https://www.facebook.com/groups/103097579846206/): “we prob play him at right back.”

[Cheryl Flowers:](https://www.facebook.com/groups/103097579846206/) “I’m of the opinion we need a decent defender!”
