Joe Rothwell: Southampton sign Bournemouth midfielder on loan

Southampton have signed AFC Bournemouth midfielder Joe Rothwell on loan until the end of the season.

The 29-year-old, who joined the Cherries from Blackburn Rovers in 2022, has played 11 times in the Premier League this season.

Having started his career at Manchester United, he went on to play 161 times in the Championship for Rovers.

Rothwell is Saints' second new signing after Irish teenager Joe O'Brien-Whitmarsh joined from Cork City.

"Hopefully I can come in and show my experience of this league and help them get over the line," Rothwell told the club website.
