It's been 18 days since news of Russell Martin's 'imminent' Swansea City departure first broke.
Martin was previously expected to fly out the United States to meet the club's owners, with talks over an extension to his current deal believed to be one of the key items on the agenda.
When it emerged Martin had stayed at home, the expectation was that a move to Southampton was likely to be wrapped up within a couple of days or so.
