Eastleigh Football Club are pleased to confirm the signing of full-back Sonnie Davis on a loan from Southampton until the end of the season!

The 20-year-old full-back arrives on loan following his development at Southampton FC, where he progressed through the Saints’ academy and became a regular in their U21 and U23 sides. Davis made over 20 appearances in Premier League 2, scoring three goals from defence and captaining the side on several occasions.

Sonnie, son of first-team manager Kelvin, signed a contract extension with Southampton in 2023 before he continued to feature regularly for the U21s and trained with the senior squad, gaining experience in a top-flight professional environment during the 2023/24 campaign.

Following the completion of the deal, Kelvin Davis said: “We needed a similar profile to what we have on the other side in terms of a loan recruitment from a higher league club, someone who’s looking to gain experience for their parent club.

“I’m aware that there’s an obvious connection but ultimately he’s been recruited because of what he can give us on the pitch and when he’s called upon, I’m sure he can help to improve us as a squad and provide us with some depth.”
