Southampton’s Jay Robinson impresses on Monza loan after lively Coppa Italia display | OneFootball

Southampton winger Jay Robinson is making an eye-catching start to his loan at AC Monza under former Southampton manager Ivan Juric, drawing praise after a sharp cup outing.

According to Sainstmarching.com, he made his Serie A bow at San Siro, introduced with 11 minutes left against Inter Milan, as Monza were beaten 4-1.

The Coppa Italia tie at Torino then showcased him, Monza winning 1-0 as he played 73 minutes, completed four dribbles and rattled the crossbar while wearing number 46.

Supporters on social media lauded his direct, slick play, and Juric praised the display, suggesting Monza could help bring out his best.

Robinson had impressed on the South Coast, posting 25 goal contributions for the U21s, then two goals and one assist for the seniors last season, including a fine strike against Queens Park Rangers.

Injuries curtailed his progress, limiting him to 73 Championship minutes in 2026. With £9m Lewis Dobbin arriving to bolster the left flank, a loan was viewed as the next step.

If the form continues, Southampton could be tempted to consider an early recall, as they did with James Bree last season. For now, Robinson is taking it game by game at Stadio Brianteo.

Elsewhere, Tonda Eckert’s side loaned out Ben Brereton Diaz, Cameron Archer and Yukinara Sugawara late in the window, with permanent exits considered likely after 2026/27, and sent Joshua Quarshie to Sturm Graz to develop.
