🚨 #SaintsFC have confirmed the signing of goalkeeper Joe Lumley on a season-long deal.

Joe has worked under Dean Thornton at QPR previously and adds back-up.

💬 JW: “Caballero moved on in the summer so it was important we reinforced things a bit, and Joe fits the bill well.”

Yesterday in 2015, Southampton won the second leg of their Europa League qualifier against Vitesse.

Graziano Pellè and Sadio Mané goals gave us a 2-0 win on the night and made it 5-0 on aggregate.

We actually looked alright in green #SaintsFC
