Interest across Europe arriving for Southampton defender Bella-Kotchap

Southampton defender Armel Bella-Kotchap has a lot of clubs chasing his signature.

The 21-year-old German arrived at the club last summer from VFL Bochum.

Despite an injury-hit season, he has impressed when playing, despite the Saints relegation troubles.

BBC Sport reports that Bella-Kotchap has clubs from the Premier League, La Liga, Bundesliga and Serie A targeting him.

Even if the Saints go down, which is expected as they are bottom of the Premier League, Bella-Kotchap will likely return to a top flight league in the summer.

The Saints do not want to lose him, but may have to cash in if they go down.
