Saints statement:
Quote:

Southampton Football Club can confirm that Luke Shaw has today completed his move to Manchester United.

The Saints Academy graduate moves to Old Trafford for an undisclosed fee. The fee will amount to the highest-ever transfer fee received by the club, making the 18 year-old the most expensive teenager ever.

Executive Director Les Reed commented: “While we are sad to see Luke depart the club, we fought to ensure that we got the right deal for a player in whom we have invested a great deal of work over the past decade.

“Luke joined us at the age of eight, and our academy staff and coaches have helped him to progress into a top-class player. He will leave our club and carry forward our top-class pedigree, as others have done before.

“This deal is a good one for Southampton Football Club, and hopefully sends a clear message to other clubs wishing to bid for our players.

“Luke’s transfer fee will be reinvested into the team as our new manager, Ronald Koeman, builds for the new season and for years to come.”

CEO Gareth Rogers commented: “Luke's world-record transfer to Manchester United is yet another endorsement of the great work undertaken at our academy and by the staff at Southampton Football Club.

And Southampton's academy is certainly something to be proud of as it has produced some real gems over the years and long may it continue.

Has produced some real gems for other clubs to enjoy, the new financial rules mean the top six or seven clubs will remain pretty much unchallenged for the foreseeable future, makes me wonder why the rest bother

l can understand your point totally TD but its even worse in some of the other leagues as for example Bayern buy all the young German talent whilst Barca and Real purchase all the main Spanish talent and that's just those two of the leagues.

Just because it's that way in those leagues doesn't mean ours has to be the same and the big difference in both those leagues is that the clubs are owned by the fans, with the new epl ffp rules why do clubs even need owners

Shaw departure great business for #saintsfc who have academy prospect Matt Targett waiting in the wings. Koeman now has £27m to invest also.

I'm told Arsenal are now very keen on signing Dejan Lovren. Could be a summer exodus at #saintsfc...
