Joe Lumley: Southampton sign former Middlesbrough goalkeeper

Southampton have signed goalkeeper Joe Lumley following his departure from fellow Championship club Middlesbrough.

The 28-year-old, who made 42 appearances during a loan spell with Reading last season, has agreed a one-year deal at St Mary's.

Lumley spent two years on the books at Boro, featuring 39 times.

"Joe will be a good addition to what is already a strong stable of goalkeepers here," director of football Jason Wilcox told the Saints website.

"Willy Caballero moved on in the summer, so it was important we reinforced things a little bit, and Joe fits the bill well.
