Southampton manager, Russell Martin has once again discussed Paul Onuachu’s future at the club, DAILY POST reports.

Onuachu returned to the Premier League club for pre-season duty last week.

The 30-year-old spent last season on loan at Turkish Super Lig outfit, Trabzonspor.

The lanky hitman made a big impression, scoring 15 goals in 25 league appearances for Trabzonspor.

The Black Sea Storm are keen to sign the Nigerian on a permanent contract but are yet to meet Southampton’s valuation.

Martin praised Onuachu for his professionalism since returning to training with the club.

“We’ve had one bid for Paul and it was nowhere near the valuation of the club,” Martin told the DAILY ECHO.

“Paul’s been great. He’s trained really well and we’ve had a good chat. He’s been really honest with me. I’ve been really honest with him.”

“There’s been no transfer request as far as I know. If I get told anything different, I’ll tell you.

“But so far no. He’s training hard, you’ve probably seen that yourself. He’s not ready to play yet. He’s only been back since Sunday so we’ll have to wait and see.”
