Transfer News: Argentinian striker Guido Carrillo joins Leganes from Southampton

Southampton have confirmed that Argentinian striker Guido Carrillo has left the club to join Spanish side CD Leganes on loan for next season. The Saints announced the news on their official website, wishing the 27-year-old good luck in Spain.

Carrillo only joined the club in January as Southampton paid around £19m to sign the striker from French side Monaco. However, his brief spell in England was not as successful as either party would have hoped, as Carrillo failed to find the back of the net in any of his ten appearances for the club.

Carrillo started his career at Argentinian side Estudiantes and found himself the subject of several transfer rumours. The likes of Benfica and Inter Milan were reportedly interested in signing Carrillo, but it was Monaco who won the race for his signature.

21 goals in 95 appearances in France was clearly enough to impress Southampton’s former manager Mauricio Pellegrino, and Carrillo was brought to the Premier League. Pellegrino was sacked in March of this year after a dismal run of one victory in 17 matches saw his team involved in a relegation battle.

After three months without a job, Pellegrino joined CD Leganes. His move for Carrillo clearly highlights the faith that the manager has in Carrillo.
