Southampton have made their second capture of the January transfer window with the signing of Daniel Seaborne.

The 22-year-old defender has arrived from League One side Exeter City for an undisclosed fee, signing a three-and-a-half year contract.

The Saints head to Exeter in League One during the first week of February.

"I'd love to be involved when we play there but Saturday's game at Millwall is the most important for me at the moment," he told the club website.

"Hopefully I'll be in the team this weekend and put in a good performance, then we'll go from there."

Seaborne has come through the ranks at Exeter City, featuring in over 30 games in City's promotion from League Two last season.

The defender also captained the side to promotion from the Blue Square Premier league two years ago.

"We had a fantastic squad when we were in the Conference, probably League One standard," he added.

"We played at Wembley twice in that time, and getting promoted last season on the final day was fantastic for the club."
