Jones said: "He's a serious attacking threat and I'm sure anyone who has followed his progress or watched what he did at the World Cup will see what he can do." He's here and we're excited to have him.

Orsic leaves Dinamo Zagreb with 28 goals in the European competition.

Orisic said that he felt very happy to be a part of Saints. It's a dream for every football player to play in the premier league and I'm here, I'm ready, I'm motivated and I hope that I can help the team achieve their goals.

I'm sure I'll enjoy my time here at the camp. It is a difficult situation for the club, but I think we need to stick together. Everyone is going to stay in the premier league.

I hope we will be happy at the end of the year because we need to work hard.

In the past 13 league games, the Saints have only won one game.
