The 21-year-old was drafted from French side, Rennes at the last day of the transfer window early this year, to help bolster the chances of the Saints in the Premier League but they could not survive the relegation battle.

Since joining Southampton, Sulamana has made 18 Premier League appearances with two goals to his credit and an assist.

According to Italian daily, Gazzetta dello Sport, the Bianconeris are keeping the taps on the Ghana midfielder and are hopeful Southampton’s relegation to the second tier could force him avail himself for a possible transfer to the Serie A.
