[ad_pod ]Lots of Southampton fans were crying out for them to sign Joakim Maehle after he scored two goals for Denmark at the U21 European Championships on Thursday night.The 22-year-old, who was subject to a £10.5million bid from Saints back in January which was rejected, netted either side of half-time despite playing in an unfamiliar left-back role to give the Danes a 3-1 win in their second group game.And regulars to St Mary’s couldn’t help but feel they had missed out on a promising young talent who is used as a right-back or right-midfielder for KRC Genk.

The versatile Scandinavian played 30 times in the Jupiler Pro League last season and contributed two goals and five assists.

Should the south coast reignite their interest and see a move through, he would be the second addition to Ralph Hasenhuttl’s squad after he signed Moussa Djenepo earlier this month in a deal that could rise to £15m.

Many Southampton fans are eager for that to happen and took to Twitter to encourage their side to get it done.
