Tino Lavramento
The highly-rated wing-back Tino Livramento has already made an impression following his impact in Southampton’s friendly against Athletic Bilbao on Saturday at St.Mary’s. Livramento came off the bench and very quickly set up new teammate Theo Walcott with a brilliant lob over the Bilbao defence to finish. Hassenhuttl’s admiration for Chelsea’s Young Player of The Season was clear when Livramento gave quotes to his new club shortly after arriving.
Tino Livramento said: “The manager was quite a big factor as to why I wanted to come here, the passion that he shows, I just can’t wait to get started. He wanted to tell me a lot, he wants to tell me a lot about how he wants me to come in and train, how he wants me to play, what he wants me to bring to the team. That was really attractive to me to see him expressing those emotions. Showing how he sees me playing in a Premier League team, which is really big for me being 18 – it was a really good conversation.”
The ability to persuade Livramento to leave Chelsea shows the intent Hassenhuttl has to make him a valued part of his plans this season, despite not playing a minute of Premier League football for Chelsea. This could be a similar situation with Broja, as the Saints attempt to replace the goals of Danny Ings, who was sold to Aston Villa last week.
