Following his successful loan spell at Sheffield United, Brereton Diaz, a striker from Villarreal, is back for pre-season training. Despite Sheffield United’s relegation, the 25-year-old made a significant impact with six goals and one assist in 16 appearances at Bramall Lane.
Currently faced with uncertain prospects at Villarreal due to strong competition from Gerard Moreno, Alexander Sorloth, and Arnaut Danjuma, Brereton Díaz is looking to return to the Premier League. Southampton, who have shown interest in him in the past, are now in advanced discussions to bring him back to England, as reported by The Athletic.

Saints manager Russell Martin is keen on bolstering their attacking options after losing Che Adams to Torino on a free transfer recently. Brereton Diaz’s flexibility to play across the forward line along with his Premier League experience makes him a valuable addition to the squad.
