Virgil Van Dijk: Southampton agree £11.5m fee for Celtic defender

Southampton have agreed a fee of £11.5m with Scottish champions Celtic for Dutch defender Virgil van Dijk.

The 24-year-old is having a medical with the Premier League club before finalising a five-year contract.
Van Dijk joined Celtic in 2013 after three years with Groningen and has won two successive league titles and the Scottish Cup with the Bhoys.
As Van Dijk arrives, Saints forward Emmanuel Mayuka, 24, has left to join French club Metz on a three-year deal.
The Zambia international, who was top scorer at the 2012 Africa Cup of Nations, joined Saints from Young Boys in August 2012 and scored once in 19 appearances.
He spent the 2013-14 season on loan at French side Lorient.
