Romeu eager to continue development at Southampton following Chelsea exit

Southampton's latest signing Oriol Romeu is eager to continue his development in the Premier League following his exit from Chelsea.

The 23-year-old Spanish midfielder, who spent last two seasons on loan away from England, can't wait to ply his trade once again in the Premier League after completing a reported £5million to the Saints.

"I've seen many things, many cultures and different ways to play football," Romeu told Southampton's official YouTube channel. "I have learned a lot from every coach.

"I want to keep learning. Now, with Ronald Koeman, it will be a good experience for me. He's a top coach and was a top player so it'll be a pleasure to play for him.

"I have played in three of the best leagues in Europe, but if I had to choose one, the English one is the best for a player."
