Southampton owner insists club under no pressure to sell players

Southampton owner Dragan Solak stated that the club is not under pressure to sell players during the summer transfer window. Although the team is facing financial challenges after spending a second consecutive season in the Championship without parachute payments beyond 2027, Solak aims to maintain or improve the team's quality. He emphasized the desire to create a competitive squad rather than focusing on profit from player sales. Solak also expressed confidence in head coach Tonda Eckert despite ongoing investigations into the club's conduct. The FA's decision could affect Eckert's future depending on the investigation's outcome.
