Romain Gasmi to sign for Saints?
Romain Gasmi is on the brink of joining Southampton on loan with an option to buy. The Strasbourg midfielder, contracted until 2010 successfully passed a medical this Tuesday, even though he has been suffering from a fractured 5th metatarsal of the left foot for the last 15 days, and will be out of action for a further 6 weeks.
“I’ve talked to the Chairman and the Manager and they both want to sign me, but I don’t want to get carried away and say I’m already a Southampton player, I’d prefer to wait until the 2 clubs have agreed everything. I’m not making any demands, I just want to go out on loan and have the chance to play. I’m staying at Southampton until Thursday afternoon. Then, I will return to Strasbourg. I won’t sign anything before the weekend because I came to England without my agent. I was surprised by the interest from Southampton given that I’m injured, but I’m really delighted.”
The attacking midfielder, 21 years old, who is currently sidelined with a foot injury is “going there to look at the set-up” confirmed Jean-Luc Herzog, “Southampton contacted us and he could be loaned there with an option to buy”, a scenario made possible because Gasmi does not figure in Jean-Marc Furlan’s plans.

Re: Romain Gasmi to sign for Saints?
This lad can play on the wing too. Could prove to be a really good signing IMO.
No more departures!
So Euell and Skacel will be like additional signings also, if they are now integrated back into the first team squad. A little more experience and strength could be good, as Jan has hinted, three games in a week is too much to ask young players under pressure.

I know that Gasmi is injured, but is there any other reason why he hasn't been added to the squad list on the official website?

Probably just a bit slow to update Motty.
