In 219 appearances, the winger scored 91 goals and won four Croatian trophies with the club before moving. The winger has already established his name against the English side.

He scored three goals against Tottenham in the Europa League. The winger also delivered a world-class performance against West Ham.

In the Champions League, he scored the winning goal against Chelsea but was not able to help them qualify for the Round of 16.

Orsic, who was close to joining Burnley last season, helped Croatia win third place in the 2022 World Cup in Qatar after scoring a winner against Morocco.

Southampton manager Jones claims Orsic is a good addition he has been looking forward to, and he can’t wait for Orsic to start playing. The player is a serious offensive threat. 

Orsic seems to be happy playing for Southampton, and it is a dream to move to the Premier League, which is a difficult league to play in. 

His plan is to help Southampton stay in the Premier League at the end of the season. The player wouldn’t make his debut when Southampton plays Manchester City in the Carabao Cup.
