Southampton are expected to make 'two or three' more additions this window as they look to bolster their squad in the fight for Premier League survival, transfer insider Fabrizio Romano has informed GIVEMESPORT.

The Saints have already enjoyed a busy January period, bringing in Carlos Alcaraz from Racing Club and Mislav Orsic from Dinamo Zagreb.

What's the latest transfer news involving Southampton?

Southampton has been linked with several players this window as Nathan Jones looks to beef up a squad that has managed just four Premier League wins all season.

Lately, The Daily Mail has reported that the Saints look to be moving closer to landing Villarreal striker Nicolas Jackson on a deal worth around £18 million.

Despite initially wanting to take the 21-year-old forward on a loan-to-buy agreement, the Premier League outfit now seems to be on the verge of landing another permanent attacking option. Southampton are eyeing some fresh impetus from an offensive standpoint, with Jackson fitting the bill as a versatile frontman with an eye for goal.

Additionally, Luton Town right-back James Bree is another transfer target as per the same report and is someone who boss Jones worked with at the Hatters before taking over at Southampton. Tottenham youngster Djed Spence is also believed to be in the Saints' thoughts; however, they face competition from French giants Lyon for his signature.

What has Fabrizio Romano said about the Saints' transfer activity?

Transfer insider Romano thinks that Southampton could look to wrap up 'two or three' more deals this month.

Romano told GMS: "I think Southampton will be busy; Jackson in as an attacking player could be a solution, so they're following probably players for two or three more signings before the end of the window."

Do Southampton need to sign more players this month?

In light of their position at the foot of the Premier League table, it may be wise for Southampton to get some more bodies in this month to add some extra competition for places.

Only Bournemouth have directly conceded more goals than the Saints across the league campaign, signifying that some defensive reinforcements, in particular, could help to steady the ship at St Mary's.

According to The Athletic, interest in Luton right-back Bree has come about due to talented defender Tino Livramento suffering a setback in his recovery from a nasty ACL injury, which at least shows that manager Jones is taking a pragmatic approach to recruiting potential additions.

In the next couple of weeks, it will be interesting to see how Southampton go about their business, with the impending danger of relegation looming over their heads at present.
