Southampton boss Ronald Koeman will sign Feyenoord midfielder Tonny Vilhena this summer after the Dutch international flew over to England for secret talks.
DONE DEAL: Saints will complete their move for Vilhena in the summer
Vilhena travelled to the UK on March 3, the day Saints beat Crystal Palace 1-0 at St Mary's.
Koeman tried to buy Vilhena on transfer deadline day but was unwilling to meet his old club's £5m asking price.
The Saints boss sees Vilhena, 20, as a ready-made replacement for Morgan Schneiderlin, who is poised to quit at the end the season.
