Scienza to return to Saints action amid growing Premier League transfer speculation | OneFootball

Southampton winger Leo Scienza has returned to training after last week’s injury scare, with transfer talk around him gathering pace.

Sky Sports Germany reports that clubs in the Premier League, Serie A, La Liga and Brazil have made enquiries, and Southampton would demand at least €20m [£17.3m] for the Brazilian.

He signed a four-year deal to 2029 on deadline day in September. Scienza leads the Championship for big chances created with 19, three more than anyone else, and has six goals and eight assists.

He limped off at West Bromwich Albion last Wednesday, but the issue was not as serious as first feared. Scienza and Ross Stewart have returned to the pitch, Jay Robinson has been back with the team, and Welington is due to train on Thursday.

Scienza could feature against Norwich on Wednesday night, with the priority on getting him match fit to start on Saturday versus Oxford United. The returns of Stewart and Robinson strengthen Southampton for the play-offs. He has made clear he is in England to play Premier League football, and promotion in May could help keep him for longer.
