Don't mean to go all BG (linking every free agent who could potentially play in a position we require to us) but surely Sessegnon would improve our striking options significantly and we wouldn't have to pay a transfer fee? Ditched by West Brom so probably won't find another Premiership club but surely could do a job at this level. Are the club pursuing free agent options I wonder or is our business done until January?

I always like Sessegnon, thought he was quality, interesting that he's available on a free.

The club will be looking at free agents for sure.
But we won't hear about it, and they may conclude there is no deal worth doing.

A quick search on Twitter and fans from almost every Chamionship club and some Prem teams are getting excited about signing Sessegnon. He plays the position we are in most need of IMO. Guaranteed game time, come on Steph, join your old team mate Poc.

The same applies to Ravel Morrison who was released by Lazio so is eligible to be signed as a free agent I believe.

On the 'ead son!
It's a great idea, but we will be competing with some of the lower clubs in the PL, so I doubt we'd get him. It may also depend on his wage demands?

There are a few about it just depends if they are what we are after SS is a good player certainly at this level. There are a few others on the free list worth some consideration, although looking at the list they all seem the moody type. Dani Osvaldo?, Berbatov, Analka, Adebayor all seem to have that in common.

Dani Osvaldo has retired from football to pursue a music career. On behalf of NSC and Southampton FC, I would like to wish him all the best.

He's been put on the transfer list by Lazio, but not released from his contract.

Jesus Christ. I've heard about pre madonnas but that takes it to a new level.

This isn't actually the worst shout in the world.
Could be a great bit of business, however I am sure he has a number of offers that he is considering.
Must be gutted that he got released and West Brom then signed Robson-Kanu - massive kick in the gut

I doubt we'll be competing with loads of Prem clubs, as I say he was released by West Brom and no one has taken a punt on him as of yet. If we get a decent contract offer sorted (we were going to pay £8m + presumably big wages for Pritchard) he would still cost us far, far less and has a lot of experience.

Two things come to mind . . .
1. Knowing that a few Premier League teams may want to throw a contract at him shortly, he may wish to bide his time until they do.
2. Is he a free agent for a reason? . . .
