Sofiane Boufal appears to have played his final game for Southampton after agreeing terms over a £30,000-a-week move to Olympiakos, according to Sportime.
If he does leave, the Moroccan will always have his place in Premier League history.
A stunning solo strike against West Bromwich Albion earned Boufal the competition’s Goal of the Season award in 2017/18.
But for many Saints fans, the skill, speed and mesmerising close control he showed before slamming the ball in the Baggies’ net only enhances the nagging sense of ‘what might have been’ as Boufal packs his bags and heads for the exit.
A man labelled the new Eden Hazard at Lille had all the ability in the world but never managed to master the art of consistency.
To add to the frustration, Sportime claims Boufal will be sold for just £3.5 million – a lot less than the club-record £16 million fee Southampton paid in 2017 when they appeared to have snapped up a fleet-footed winger with genuine world-class potential.

Real Betis were interested in the one-time Celta Vigo winger but Olympiakos have reportedly leapt to the front of the queue.
Boufal has agreed terms on a £30,000-a-week contract with a side that lifted its 45th Greek title last term.
The Saints will now turn their attention to getting a couple of other high-earning players off the books – starting with Wesley Hoedt and Guido Carrillo.
