A number of Bristol City supporters have been reacting to the latest report from Bristol Live suggesting that Southampton have been monitoring Daniel Bentley, Tyreeq Bakinson, Antoine Semenyo and Han-Noah Massengo.

The Robins are set to face a crucial summer transfer window while they also need to sort out the long-term future of manager Nigel Pearson. Bristol City will need to make the right additions to their squad if they are to improve on a difficult season on the Championship and they will also need to try and keep hold of some of their best players.

According to a report from Bristol Live, Southampton are interested in signing Bentley as they aim to improve their goalkeeping options and the Saints have been watching the keeper over the last few weeks. While the Premier League club have also been keeping an eye on the performances of the likes of Bakinson, Semenyo and Massengo.

The report added that there is also interest in the young trio from the likes of Wolves, Bournemouth and Norwich City. That suggests that the Robins should be braced for a hectic summer of speculation surrounding the futures of those players and will face a battle to keep them at Ashton Gate.

Many Bristol City fans were left frustrated that they are already being linked with potentially having to sell certain players from their squad. With one fan gloomily suggesting the usual summer anxieties can begin already.
