Southampton have agreed deals to sign Brazilian duo Welington and Juan when their contracts at Sao Paulo expire.

Both players have settled on personal terms, signing pre-contracts, and will move to St Mary's in January.

Left-back Welington, 23, has made 150 appearances for the Brazilian Serie A side, also being a part of winning teams in the 2023 Copa do Brasil final and the 2024 Supercopa do Brasil.

He has represented Brazil at under-23 level.

Forward Juan, 22, has scored eight goals in 80 appearances for Sao Paulo and has played for Brazil Under-19s.

Southampton, who were promoted through the play-offs, begin their Premier League campaign at Newcastle on Saturday, 17 August.
