Talented Southampton Striker Olomola Misses Barcelona Scouts

Southampton striker Olufela Olomola missed the opportunity to display his wares in Southampton&rsquo;s 2-1 win over Inter Milan in the Europa League on Thursday night.<br /><br />Spanish sports daily AS has reported that representatives of Barcelona were at the St. Mary&rsquo;s Stadium to run the rule over Cedric Soares, who is being linked with a move to the Nou Camp as replacement for another target Arsenal&rsquo;s Hector Bellerin. <br /><br />Just as Olomola did not get game time, manager Claude Puel rested Soares and the scouts could not complete their mission in England. <br /><br />The 19-year-old Nigerian was a non-playing substitute as the Saints were held to a goalless draw by Israeli champs Hapoel Beer Sheva in September. <br /><br />The former Arsenal youth-teamer later made his first team debut ten days ago in a League Cup clash versus Sunderland.<br /><br />Igho Kingsley<br /><br />Photo Credit : southamptonfc.com<br />
