Finally! Defensive Midfielder Respond To Manchester United Transfer Rumour!

With Jose Mourinho keen on improving his defense strength come January, the red devils are keeping tab on outstanding players around the globe. One of the defenders who have been linked for a move is Southampton centre-half Jose Fonte.

32-year old Fonte earlier this week fueled the speculation when he announced Southampton’s decision to not offer him a new contract.

However, talented Southampton midfielder Steven Davis said he is not worried about United’s pursuit of Jose Fonte. Davis said his club are used to losing high-profile players in recent seasons and he is very confident that Manchester United’s interest in Fonte will have no affect on the squad.

“We are well used to it by now. In my time here we have sold a lot of players, a lot of big players, and it shows we are doing things the right way,” he said.

Davis thinks Jose Fonte exit rumours will not affect Southampton players.

“It can only be taken as a positive that other teams are interested in players. I know we have a lot of quality in the dressing room and I’d be surprised if other teams weren’t looking at us.

“We all know what the club means to Jose and what Jose means to the club. He obviously has a personal situation there which has not been discussed in the dressing room.

“He’s the same character, he’s doing his best in training every day and pushing the team on and that’ll not change.”

Southampton FC in recent windows have lost the players like Sadio Mane, Victor Wanyama, Morgan Schneiderlin, Nathaniel Clyne, Luke Shaw, Adam Lallana and Dejan Lovren.
