Southampton are eyeing up a move for Marseille forward Bamba Dieng

Southampton are keen on Bamba Dieng from Marseille.

The Ligue 1 side have held talks with Dieng's representatives over extending his stay at the club but with still no agreement in place, the 22-year-old could now be sold.

Saints, who are currently bottom of the Premier League, are one of a number of clubs who are interested in signing the Senegalese forward, as Nathan Jones looks to bolster his frontline in a bid to beat the drop.

Marseille are also interested in Lorient striker Terem Moffi, who has been linked with West Ham this month, and could offer Dieng as part of a player-plus-cash deal.
