Southampton’s relegation from the Premier League has been confirmed after a challenging season, culminating in a 3-1 defeat to Tottenham Hotspur. This marks a significant moment for Nigeria’s Joe Aribo, as the Super Eagles midfielder will now compete in the Championship next season.
Aribo joined Southampton from Rangers and made 30 appearances during the season, contributing three goals. Despite his efforts, the club struggled throughout the campaign, setting an unwanted record of being relegated with seven games remaining—the earliest in Premier League history.
In the decisive match against Tottenham, Brennan Johnson scored twice in the first half, and Mathys Tel secured victory with a late penalty. Aribo played for 64 minutes, demonstrating his typical determination, but the team could not overcome their opponents’ dominance.
