Southampton refuse to give up on Victor Wanyama despite failure to agree terms with Celtic player Southampton manager Mauricio Pochettino has not given up on bringing Celtic's Victor Wanyama to St Mary's. The 22-year-old Kenyan's stock has risen markedly in his two years at Parkhead, leading to talk of a move south of the border. Liverpool, Arsenal, Everton and Cardiff have all been linked with the Celtic midfielder, but it is Southampton that were given permission to speak to him after a reported £12million bid was accepted. However, Wanyama has so far failed to agree terms with Saints, leading to suggestions of issues with his representatives. Pochettino has not yet given up on the deal, though, and is also targeting big-money moves for Internacional's Leandro Damiao and Valencia midfielder Ever Banega. "It could happen," the Argentinian said of Wanyama. We manage a lot of information about very good players. Billy Sharp and Richard Chaplow were amongst those told they had no future at St Mary's, leading them to post tongue-in-cheek messages to each other on Twitter. "Rchap04 u fancy a game of golf,seen as you have time on your hands," Sharp messaged his team-mate. Chaplow responded: "billysharp10 can play anytime, morning, day or night 7 days a week? Pick your time, nothing else todo £bored. Dean Hammond, Tadanari Lee, Lee Barnard and Steve de Ridder were also told they could leave, while several other squad players look set to be on their way out.
