Romeo Lavia smiles and looks to his right as he walks through St Mary's on his way to the tunnel. The midfielder is wearing a purple Saints-branded tracksuit and black gilet, with a black-and-white baseball cap, while carrying his phone in his left hand and washbag under his right arm.

I’ve been asking some questions on Romeo Lavia the last couple of days, and sources have given me some solid info on this.

To recap, Chelsea reportedly made a £50m offer to sign the Southampton midfielder on deadline day in the summer. However, I understand this offer was not an official offer and was more of a late verbal enquiry from Todd Boehly and Chelsea, as they looked for a midfielder to bring in last minute.
