Sam Amo-Ameyaw sets Southampton goal after midfielder completes transfer from Tottenham

Southampton have announced the signing of Sam Amo-Ameyaw on a scholarship deal from Tottenham.

“I thought it’s a very good platform for me to progress through and hopefully I’ll be able to do just that at Southampton.

“I’m a good dribbler, I like to receive one-twos off others and get in the box and score. My aim is to get into the first team as quick as possible, but first I’ve got to do well with the 18s and progress through to that next level.”

On the addition of Amo-Ameyaw, Head of Youth Recruitment Dan Rice said that the winger was a player Saints had their eye on due to his ability his high level of technique and called him 'one of the most talented players in his age group.'
