Ever since Alan Shearer's 1992 departure for Blackburn, Saints had struggled to find a goalscoring centre forward to play alongside Le Tissier. British options like Iain Dowie and Neil Shipperley failed to impress, so Saints manager Graeme Souness looked to Scandinavia to provide. Egil Ostenstad had arrived from Viking FK for £800,000 in 1996 and scored 10 times in his debut season. Bodo/Glimt forward Stig Johansen had a better strike rate in the Norwegian league than Ostenstad, in fact he had managed over a goal every two games, so his signing for £600,000 in the summer of 1997 promised big things. The 25 year old only made 6 Premier League appearances for Saints and never looked even close to finding the back of the net. Ostenstad enjoyed two more seasons at the Dell where he managed to be a semi-regular scorer before Souness brought him along to new club Blackburn. Johansen, meanwhile, was sent out on loan to First Division Bristol City where, once again, he failed to score even once. Eventually, Johansen departed for Sweden's Helsingborgs before returning to Norway in 2001.
