SOUTHAMPTON misfit Wesley Hoedt has been shipped out on loan to Celta Vigo until the end of the season.
The Dutchman, 24, had fallen out of favour under new boss Ralph Hasenhuttl.
Hoedt links up with another Saints flop in Sofiane Boufal, who is already with the Spanish club on a season-long loan deal.
Big things were expected of centre-back Hoedt when he arrived in August 2017 from Lazio for £15million.
Saints hoped he could be the next hidden gem they would uncover and follow in the footsteps of Dejan Lovren and Virgil van Dijk.
But he struggled to live up to that billing and, despite making 13 appearances this term, has not featured at all under Hasenhuttl.
The Austrian, who succeeded Mark Hughes, has made no secret of his desire to trim a bloated squad and has already sold Manolo Gabbiadini to Sampdoria.
A club statement said: “Hoedt’s move will allow him to gain additional playing time between now and the end of the season, while also further helping Ralph Hasenhuttl to achieve his arm of trimming the first-team squad this month.

“The club would like to wish Wesley good luck for the rest of the season.”
Southampton are currently three points above the relegation zone, having won four of their last seven league games.
