Theo Walcott: Southampton sign forward from Everton on season-long loan

Southampton have re-signed forward Theo Walcott on a season-long loan from Everton.

Walcott, who has 47 England caps, started his career at Southampton before moving to Arsenal in 2006.

Everton signed him from the Gunners in a £20m deal in January 2018.

"I had a few opportunities from other clubs, but as soon as Southampton came in for me, it's part of me and has made me into the player I am. It's in my heart," said the 31-year-old.

"I will probably cry, I bet, when I first play, and it means so much. All the people that made it happen, I can't thank them enough.
