Southampton made a free transfer move for Juventus’ defender Martin Caceres

Martin Caceres

Southampton is all set to complete a free transfer move for former Juventus and Barcelona defender Martin Caceres. With this transfer they are believed to solve their EFL Cup final crisis.

It is very interesting to note that the 29-year-old Uruguayan, who has won titles in Spain and Italy has not played in a competitive match for a year after suffering a ruptured Achilles tendon last February. Despite that he attracted interest from Sunderland and Crystal Palace too.

According to skysports Caceres, who has 68 caps for his country, left Juventus in the summer and can join Saints as a free agent.

He will provide cover after Virgil van Dijk was ruled out for up to three months with an ankle problem and Jose Fonte left for West Ham.

It is understood that Caceres will complete £100,000-a-week deal after receiving a work permit and passing a medical with Southampton.
