Relegated Southampton youngster rejects Champions League offer, commits to club

Even after relegation, Southampton's Carlos Alcaraz seems inclined to stay with the Saints by rejecting offers from Newcastle and Benefica. 

The 20-year-old, who joined Southampton from Racing Club in January, proved to be a successful signing and won over the fans with his performances. Despite the club's disappointing outcome, Alcaraz contributed four league goals, including a memorable display in Southampton's 3-3 draw against title-contending Arsenal.

The Argentine midfielder is content at Southampton and not engaged in discussions about a potential departure.

“To be honest I leave all of that [my future] to my agent. I always try to give my best wherever I go. I know there are a few clubs interested in me, but the truth is, I'm currently very happy at Southampton," said the skilled youngster to ESPN Argentina

As a response, Newcastle's Eddie Howe, who is seeking to strengthen his midfield options, will need to explore other targets following Alcaraz's decision.
