Jack Cork is poised to become the eighth player to leave Southampton this summer as he closes on a move to Crystal Palace on Thursday.

Southampton have raised more than £95million with the sales of Adam Lallana, Luke Shaw, Dejan Lovren, Calum Chambers, Rickie Lambert and Billy Sharp, who signed for Leeds United on a two year deal on Wednesday.

On his way: Southampton have accepted a £3m offer from Crystal Palace for Jack Cork

Cork had one year left on contract and talks over a new deal had failed to produce an agreement.

Fearing they would lose him for nothing next summer, Southampton have accepted a fee of around £3million from Palace.

They rejected a similar offer from Swansea in January for Cork, while West Bromwich Albion and QPR had also shown interest in the 25-year-old midfielder, who joined from Chelsea for £800,000 in 2011.

Interest: Southampton have agreed a £12.5m fee with Hull City for striker Shane Long

Southampton, however, have agreed a £12.5m fee with Hull City for striker Shane Long and are close to finalising the £6m transfer of Florin Gardos from Steaua Bucharest.

Long's fee is set to hand his former club West Bromwich Albion around £600,000 as part of the deal that took him to Hull in January.
