Southampton have pulled off a major coup on Deadline Day by signing Liverpool winger Takumi Minamino on a loan deal until the end of the season.
Officials at St Mary’s opened negotiations with Liverpool on Monday morning and discussions continued throughout the day, with a deal agreed between the two clubs hours before the 11pm transfer deadline.

The 26-year old Japanese international underwent a medical on Monday evening and will now join his new Southampton team-mates at their team hotel in Manchester ahead of Tuesday’s game against Manchester United.
It is thought the player was not registered in time to make his debut at Old Trafford, but he will be at Ralph Hasenhuttl’s disposal for their Premier League clash at Newcastle on Saturday.
