Anderlecht claim they have agreed personal terms with Southampton defender Jelle van Damme. The Belgian side say they expect to pay around �500,000 for the 22-year-old Belgium international.
Van Damme joined Saints from Ajax in June 2004, but spent last season on loan at German club Werder Bremen.
Anderlecht chief executive Herman van Holsbeeck said: "We've agreed a four-year deal with the player but are talking to Southampton about the fee."
