da cassino： According to Spanish media outlet AS, Sevilla wanted to sign Spartak Moscow forward and former Southampton target Quincy Promes before the deadline on Friday, and even though a move has fallen through via Football Espana, Saints fans have been quick to have their say on the link surrounding the Dutchman.

da doce： Sky Sports reported during the January transfer window that the south coast outfit had a £25m offer rejected for the Netherlands international, as a potential club-record move failed to materialise.

The club then only narrowly avoided relegation to the Championship, with The Daily Mail also reporting at the time that they hoped to resurrect a deal for the prolific 26-year-old this summer.

Southampton supporters have taken to social media to give their thoughts on the Promes rumour, and while one said “we’ve got this brand new world-class Redmond”, another said “ready for the meltdown”.
