Southampton are reportedly keen on signing Sheffield Wednesday goalkeeper Pierce Charles. They are competing with Leicester City for his signature, and both clubs have the financial muscle to complete the deal.

Southampton, Russell Martin’s former club, have been linked with Pierce Charles, though their interest appears less concrete. Martin admired Charles when he was in charge at St Mary’s. Martin’s familiarity with the goalkeeper market highlights his admiration for Charles’ skill set. Transfermarkt currently estimates his market worth at 300k euros.
