Bazunu missed the start of this Nations League campaign with a back injury but his move to Southampton is now set to be completed. Bazunu is now in line to become Ralph Hasenhuttl’s No.1 ahead of the new Premier League season, the latest juncture for what has been a rapid rise for Bazunu since breaking into the Shamrock Rovers side at just 16, having been involved in training with the first-team since the age of 14. Bazunu was named in the PFA League One team of the season following his displays for Portsmouth, while his emergence on the international stage has also brought him to wider attention.

Southampton and Man City agree deal for Gavin Bazunu (Pundit Arena)

Southampton and Manchester City have agreed a deal for Gavin Bazunu, with a medical due to take place in the coming days.

However, if he is given a chance to impress in pre-season, he could easily be the Saints’ first-choice keeper going into the new season. After a great year as Ireland’s No. 1 and a very impressive loan spell with Portsmouth, it is unsurprising that Baznuu has got his move to a team in the top flight. If the Saints do get one of the most exciting goalkeepers in football for a price like that, it looks like an excellent piece of business.

This is excellent news for the League of Ireland champions who negotiated a sell-on clause in the region of 15 per cent when they agreed to sell Bazunu to City in 2018.

West Ham have led the race and it would be a blow for Moyes if he missed out on a player who settled well. Fulham have also looked at Areola, who spent the 2020-21 season on loan there, but are unlikely to be able to afford his wages. West Ham are concerned their bid to sign Alphonse Areola could be derailed by Newcastle’s interest in the Paris Saint-Germain goalkeeper. But De Gea was preferred again last August by Ole Gunnar Solskjær and his form meant he was retained by Michael Carrick and Ralf Rangnick after the Norwegian was sacked. Forest were promoted to the Premier League via the playoffs with Brice Samba as their first-choice goalkeeper. Manchester United also have the 36-year-old Tom Heaton as back-up.
