Southampton are reportedly closing in on a deal to bring in German centre-back Keven Schlotterbeck from Bundesliga outfit FC Augsburg, according to BBC News.
Details remain limited at this stage, but the report suggests Saints are advancing towards finalising terms for the defender as they look to strengthen their backline ahead of the new season.
Schlotterbeck, who has been plying his trade in Germany's top flight with Augsburg, would represent another addition to Southampton's rebuilding project as they continue to reshape their squad.
Further specifics on fee, contract length or medical timelines have not yet been confirmed, and GoalPoles will provide updates as the move progresses.
