The 2015–16 Southampton F.C. season is the club's 17th season in the Premier League and their 39th in the top division of English football.[1][2] It is also the club's first season in a European competition since 2003–04, after the result of the 2015 FA Cup Final meant that Southampton qualified for the 2015–16 UEFA Europa League.[3]
Following the end of the 2014–15 campaign Southampton released six players, including goalkeeper Artur Boruc and defender Jos Hooiveld, both of whom had been loaned out for almost all of the season.[4] Dani Osvaldo was later released on 1 July,[5] on the same day that defender Nathaniel Clyne joined Liverpool for £12.5 million.[6] Long-time midfielder Morgan Schneiderlin also left in July, joining Manchester United for a fee in the region of £25 million.[7] At the end of July and beginning of August, the Saints sent out three players on season-long loans: striker Sam Gallagher joined Milton Keynes,[8] defender Jack Stephens joined Middlesbrough,[9] and defender Jordan Turnbull returned to Swindon Town, where he spent the previous season.[10]
The club's first signings of the season came in the form of Spanish striker Juanmi, who joined from Málaga on 16 June,[11] and Portuguese defender Cédric Soares, who joined from Sporting CP for £4.7 million on 18 June.[12] Dutch goalkeeper Maarten Stekelenburg joined on loan from Fulham on 22 June,[13] before Curaçao defender Cuco Martina joined from FC Twente on 7 July.[14] On 15 July, Feyenoord captain Jordy Clasie joined for a fee in the region of £8 million.[15] On 29 July 2015, Steven Caulker joined the club on a season-long loan from Queens Park Rangers.[16] On 12 August 2015, Spanish international Oriol Romeu joined from Chelsea for £5 million.[17] The signing of Dutch centre-back Virgil van Dijk came on deadline day for a fee of £11.5 million.[18]
Pre-season
Southampton began their pre-season preparations in Austria with a friendly against German side RB Leipzig on 8 July, losing 5–4.[19] New signings Juanmi and Cédric Soares scored their first goals for the club, while Jay Rodriguez returned from a long-term injury to strike twice in the game.[19] They competed in the Audi Quattro Cup semi-final against Spanish club Valencia on 11 July, losing the game 1–0 thanks to a goal scored by Pablo Piatti.[20] Both Sadio Mané and José Fonte hit the crossbar with shots during the game, but Valencia advanced to the final.[20] In the third-place playoff match, against hosts Red Bull Salzburg, the Saints lost 2–0, thus finishing fourth in the tournament.[21]
On 15 July, Southampton faced Brighton & Hove Albion in a private match at the Staplewood training ground.[22] The Saints won the game 1–0, with Sam McQueen scoring the only goal in the final minute of the game, following a setup from Sadio Mané.[22] Three days later, they faced manager Ronald Koeman's first club FC Groningen, winning 3–0 thanks to goals from captain José Fonte, Mané and Graziano Pellè.[23] They later beat Quick '20 10–0 on 21 July, with goals including hat-tricks from Pellè and Rodriguez.[24] The Saints won their last match in the Netherlands, beating Feyenoord 3–0 with goals from Pellè, Maya Yoshida and Juanmi.[25]
The club finished their pre-season preparations at home against Spanish side RCD Espanyol on 2 August 2015.[26] The hosts went 1–0 down early on through a goal by Salva Sevilla, but equalised through Rodriguez in the last five minutes to finish the game 1–1.[26]
