It’s been a fairly successful season for Southampton thus far, with Claude Puel’s side once again managing to cope following a summer of departures but the Saints haven’t really made too much progress.
An early exit from the Europa League shattered the dream for many and Southampton have struggled to compete for a spot in the European spots this season, a challenge that was always going to be difficult considering the impressive performances of the current top-six.
However, there are silver linings for the club to grasp onto and one of those is the new contract for Oriol Romeu, with the 25-year-old signing a fresh four-and-a-half year deal to cement his future to the South Coast side.
Arriving in 2015 from Chelsea, Romeu has made 41 appearances in the Premier League alone for Southampton and boasts an impressive CV, which includes spells with Valencia, Stuttgart and Barcelona.
Saints fans are certainly pleased with his ability and took to social media to express their delight with the news regarding Romeu’s new deal, as they’re keen to keep him at St. Mary’s for years to come.
