Southampton Transfers: 10 Players To Buy This Summer

3. Asmir Begovic

His attempt to play rush goalie against Arsenal isn't the only unfortunate goal that Boruc has conceded this year. Saints' defeat at Stoke came from a goal from literally the other end of the field. Who better, then, to be the safer pair if hands to replace Boruc than the keeper who scored against him? Asmir Begovic has been one of the most consistently excellent Premier League keepers over the past couple of seasons, making it increasingly apparent that he should be looking to bigger things than the Potters' annual relegation fight. At 26, this is probably the age for the Bosnian international to move on and prove himself among the very best at what he does. Sure enough, there has been interest from both Manchester clubs, but no concrete offers. Stoke's valuation of £15 million may have put them off, but it would be a sound investment in a club of Saints' level. If a disruptive influence like Osvaldo is worth that, then a number 1 who can inspire confidence in the whole team in front of him surely is.
