The Athletic have claimed that Southampton had held talks to sign the youngster in the past.

The Italian giants enter Ramos race
As per a report by Calciomercato, Juventus are ready to sign World Cup hero Goncalo Ramos next summer.
After signing Dusan Vlahovic from Fiorentina in January, the club seem ready to pair him alongside another ruthless finisher in Ramos.
Previously, the Italian outlet had also revealed that Juve were not the only Serie A giants keen on the Portuguese forward, with AC Milan are exploring a deal to sign him.
Ramos is likelier to join Newcastle and Man United than Juventus
As things stand, Bianconeri are sitting 10 points adrift of top spot in Serie A.
In addition, the club’s entire board just recently announced their sudden resignation.
Clearly, things are extremely unstable both on and off the pitch at Juve.
On the other hand, Erik ten Hag’s men have been on the rise since his appointment.
While Eddie Howe has steered Newcastle to as high as 3rd place in the Premier League so far.
As a result, it is quite clear to see why Juventus will find it next to impossible to sign Goncalo Ramos, who has lit up the World Cup and how.
