MANOLO GABBIADINI RETURNING TO ITALY IS BEST FOR ALL PARTIES - RALPH HASENHUTTL
Manolo Gabbiadini's impending switch to Sampdoria will prove the best solution for everyone, according to Southampton manager Ralph Hasenhuttl.
The 27-year-old Italy forward is set to return to his homeland, with a reported £11million deal close to completion.
Gabbiadini joined the Saints from Napoli in January 2017, but has scored just once in 15 appearances this season.

Hasenhuttl said at a press conference: "He is a good player, fantastic technique, but I think with this intensive pressing system we try to play, it is not his way, so it was better to find a solution which is better for both sides.
