Premier League new-boys Southampton signed England U-21 defender Nathaniel Clyne from Crystal Palace on Thursday. Clyne agreed a four-year contract but the fee Southampton will pay for the right-back is still being discussed. The 21-year-old was out of contract at Palace, which would normally mean he was available on a free transfer, but because Clyne is under 24 the Championship team are due compensation. If the clubs cannot settle on a figure then an independent tribunal will be used to decide how much Southampton, back in the English top-flight for the first time since 2005, will have to pay. \"I\'m overwhelmed, really,\" Clyne told Southampton\'s website. \"As soon as I heard that Southampton were in for me, I knew that this was the place where I could try to improve my football and get a chance to play in the Premier League.\" Clyne has already joined up with his new club at their French training camp in Evian-les-Bains. Saints manager Nigel Adkins added: \"We\'re delighted that we can finally announce that we\'ve brought Nathaniel Clyne into the group to help us kick onto the next level. \"For the last three years Nathaniel has been a very attack-minded full-back who bombs on, he\'s got pace and he\'s a good one-on-one defender. \"He got into the Championship team of the year last year. All being well, we can push him onto the next level now.\"
