New Saints signing Mohamed Elyounoussi believes Southampton is the perfect place for him to get even better after he penned a five-year deal at St Mary’s.
The 23-year-old has already tasted success with Swiss giants FC Basel, helping them to win a domestic double in 2016/17 with 10 goals and 13 assists before 13 goals and 17 assists last term.
