Swindon Town bolster attack with Princewill Ehibhatiomhan's acquisition from Southampton

Southampton have confirmed the exit of Nigeria-eligible striker, Princewill Ehibhatiomhan, to Swindon Town on a season-long loan, his first senior loan, just a month after signing a new contract with the Saints, Nigeriasoccernet.com reports.

Speaking to the club media after the move, Princewill shared;

"I’m really excited to join Swindon Town. This is a great opportunity to test myself in senior football, and I’m ready to give everything to help the team have a successful season. I can’t wait to get out on the pitch, score goals, and work hard for the badge.

"I’ve heard a lot of good things about the club, the supporters, and the atmosphere at the County Ground. After speaking with the manager, it was clear this is the right place for me to develop and contribute."

The 19-year-old featured prominently for the academy last season across the Premier League 2, PL Cup, and PL2 play-offs, scoring 12 goals, the most goals he has scored in a single season.

Subject to EFL approval, he will don the number twenty jersey for the upcoming season.
