Southampton is the first team in Europe’s top five leagues to be relegated after a defeat at Tottenham Hotspur.
The Premier League has confirmed officially that Southampton has suffered the earliest relegation in Premier League history after losing 3-1 at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London on Sunday afternoon.
Brennan Jonson’s brace and a late peñalty from Tel were enough to condemn the Saints to another defeat that will set a very embarrassing record for the struggling club.
They’ve won just two Premier League games in 31 matches and have 10 points out of a possible 93 and the season is not less than six weeks to end.
Struggling teams normally know their fate when it is Week 37 and, at times, on the final day, but Southampton learn theirs in Week 31.
Croatian manager Juric replaced Russel Martin in the middle of the season with the hope that the former Torino manager could turn things around, but it was so difficult for him due to the quality of the squad.
The Saints in all competitions, have won just 6 games, and it is extremely embarrassing. They will use the rest of their games for pre-season ahead of the 2025-26 Championship season.
