Saints chief reveals keeper hopes
Southampton, 11:50, July 2, 2009 ,
Keeper Kelvin Davis has completed his medical at West Ham but Southampton boss Mark Wotte still hopes he can keep him.
The 32-year-old looks to be ready to put pen to paper on a deal at Upton Park, but Saints boss Wotte has not given up hope of keeping him on the South Coast.
Southampton are looking for new owners and, until they find some, they can not offer any new deals to any of their players but Wotte remains positive.
The Saints boss believes that Davis could yet agree a new contract on the South Coast, if a takeover of the club is sealed before he signs for West Ham.
"I asked Kelvin about his situation and he has almost signed for West Ham," Wotte told the Daily Echo.
"I hope the takeover will be done before Kelvin joins West Ham."
