Oriol Romeu is looking to be reunited with Gaston Ramirez when Middlesbrough travel down to Southampton for Sunday's match.
The pair played at St Mary's last season before Ramirez moved to the Riverside.
“It’s good to play against an old friend,” Romeu told saintsfc.co.uk. “Seeing him enjoying his football again is very good news, but hopefully he doesn’t do too well this weekend!"
