Southampton have made two major appointments as they close in on the capture of Swansea City head coach Russell Martin.
The Saints have conducted a thorough shake-up of the club since their relegation was confirmed earlier this month, with Martin Semmens having already left his role as CEO and Sport Republic - the majority shareholder at St Mary’s – taking full operational control of the club.
Dragan Solak has also been appointed chairman of Sport Republic and Rasmus Ankersen will continue as chief executive of the company, with Henrik Kraft staying on as club chairman.
