Southend want Paterson
Southend have failed with a bid to sign Southampton forward Matt Paterson, skysports.com understands.
The 20-year-old Scot has made just three appearances for Alan Pardew's men since October.
Southend are hoping they can lure him away St Mary's but their first offer has been shunned.
Paterson rejected the offer of a loan move away from the club in November, but he could now be willing to make the switch.
