I wouldn’t say Southampton have a strong scouting network. They’re a good stepping stone into the EPL though. None of those names were unknowns. Van Dijk and Wanyama had both done very well at Celtic. Mané was playing for Red Bull Salzburg and Tadic was signed from Twente by Koeman. All for pretty big fees as well.
Ings was a Southampton youth player before being allowed to leave for Bournemouth and then Liverpool, before Southampton signed him again.
Have Southampton got another Jem with Djenepo he took that goal with such ease and looked a handful
