Southampton to sign Rangers midfielder Joe Aribo

Southampton are set to sign Joe Aribo from Rangers in the summer transfer window, according to The Athletic. The report has claimed that Premier League club Southampton and Scottish Premiership giants Rangers have agreed a fee for Aribo.

The Saints will pay an initial transfer fee of £6 million plus add-ons to Rangers for Aribo. The fee could go beyond £10 million once the Gers’ sell-on cause is factored in. Aribo will now have to undergo a medical with Southampton, having already agreed personal terms with the Saints.

Aribo made 29 starts and two substitute appearances in the Scottish Premiership for Rangers last season, scoring eight goals and providing five assists in the process. The midfielder has made 13 starts and two substitute appearances in the Europa League for the Gers last season, scoring one goal and providing three assists in the process.
