Southampton have signed forward Maxwel Cornet on loan from Premier League rivals West Ham.
The 27-year-old made 37 appearances for the Hammers after joining them from Burnley in 2022, and helped the club win the Europa Conference League the following season.
Cornet has also been capped 31 times by Ivory Coast.
“Maxwel is a very dynamic player and he gives us another exciting dimension to the group,” Southampton manager Russell Martin said.
“He’s someone who can be a real threat to the opposition on the pitch and I’m delighted the ownership group and board have been able to get another attacking option in for us.
“He’s really excited to be coming here and I think it’s a move that can bring out the best in him and work really well for both him and us.”
Southampton also signed winger Ryan Fraser following his release by Newcastle and goalkeeper Aaron Ramsdale for £25m from Arsenal on deadline day.
