Southampton have come to an agreement with Monaco for the transfer of striker Guido Carrillo, Sky sources understand.

The two clubs have settled on a £19.1m [?22m] fee which will see Carrillo make the switch to the Premier League.

Southampton have made clear their desire to add a forward during the January transfer window and manager Mauricio Pellegrino earmarked Carrillo as his primary striking target.

As reported by Sky Sports, Saints had a £17.6m offer for the 26-year-old rejected by Monaco earlier in the week.

However, the reigning French champions are now willing to sanction the deal.

Pellegrino previously worked with Carrillo in his native Argentina and rates the forward highly.

Carrillo has made 22 appearances this season but just two of them have been starts in Ligue 1. He has scored 20 goals in over 50 appearances for Monaco since signing from Estudiantes in 2015.

Saints have money to spend following the £75m sale of centre-back Virgil van Dijk to Liverpool, although the fee is to be paid in instalments over the period of his contract.

Guido Carrillo: Southampton sign Monaco striker for reported £19m

Southampton have signed striker Guido Carrillo from Monaco in a £19m deal.

The 26-year-old Argentine, who scored five goals in 22 appearances for the French side this season, has signed a contract until 2021 at St Mary's.

"I'm very happy. It's a great feeling to be a part of this club," he said.

The deal reunites Carrillo with Southampton boss Mauricio Pellegrino, after previously working with him at boyhood club Estudiantes in their native Argentina.

"Lots of things attracted me," Carrillo added. "I know Southampton from watching the Premier League from when I was small, I've always regarded it as the most important league in the world."

Carrillo scored 20 goals for Monaco after signing from Estudiantes in 2015 and helped the club to the Ligue 1 title last season.

Pellegrino had been expected to reinvest the windfall from Virgil van Dijk's £75m move to Liverpool and made adding a striker a priority, with top scorer Charlie Austin injured and both Shane Long and Manolo Gabbiadini struggling for goals.

The south-coast club have also been linked with a £30m move for Spartak Moscow winger Quincy Promes.

Southampton vice-chairman Les Reed said: "Guido represents a very exciting addition to our attacking options ahead of the final months of the season.

"We are confident he will benefit us not only in the remainder of this campaign, but in the years to come."
