Rodriguez set to seal £7m Southampton switch
Posted Thursday, June 07, 2012 by Talksport.co.uk
Burnley striker Jay Rodriguez is expected to snub Sunderland and Aston Villa and seal a switch to Southampton.
The newly-promoted Saints have had a £7million bid accepted for the former England U-21 striker, who hit 21 goals in the Championship last season.
Sunderland are also showing an interest and new Aston Villa boss Paul Lambert is a long-time admirer of the 22-year-old.
But talkSPORT understands that Rodriguez will sign a four-year deal with Nigel Adkins' side in the next 48 hours, subject to a successful medical.
Rodriguez came through the youth ranks at Burnley and, since making his debut in 2007, has hit 41 goals in 128 appearances.
