Southampton ready to sell Dani Osvaldo after striker butted team-mate Jose Fonte during training session The club has taken swift and proper action for what it considers a breach of the conduct expected of its players. Southampton will be making no further comment on this matter. Osvaldo was also fined and suspended by former club Roma after allegedly punching Erik Lamela in 2011. He was already banned for Southampton's FA Cup tie against Yeovil on Saturday, as he serves the final game of his three-match ban for his part in a touchline altercation in December's draw against Newcastle. He will now additionally miss the Premier League games against Arsenal next Tuesday and the trip to Fulham on Feb 1. Southampton will try to find a buyer for Osvaldo or a club who are prepared to take the 28-year-old on loan until the end of the season. Inter Milan and Juventus showed an interest in him before his latest incident. England striker Lambert has attracted strong interest from West Ham this month and it was thought Southampton would consider a bid for him before executive chairman Nicola Cortese left the club. Lambert had been left in limbo in the immediate aftermath of Cortese's exit, but the 31-year-old has now been informed Southampton will not listen to offers for him during the final week of the transfer window. Osvaldo joined Southampton from Roma in August on a four-year deal. He has scored three times for the club, including a goal against Manchester City, but has struggled to settle in England. St Mary's sources insist the club and his team-mates have done everything possible to try to help Osvaldo acclimatise to life in England and Premier League football. But it appears Southampton have now run out of patience with their eccentric forward and will try to cut their losses as quickly as possible. Jay Rodriguez is hoping to be clearer on his future next week once talks have taken place over the 24-year-old's contract. He has a renegotiation clause in his deal that is meant to kick in after 45 starts for the Saints and he is on 43. Cortese had held talks with Rodriguez and his representatives, but that process will have to start again after Southampton's home game against Arsenal.
