Lawrence arrives at Plainmoor having established himself as a regular member of the Saints’ first-team training sessions under boss Nathan Jones, in addition to being an ever-present in the Club’s Premier League 2 side this term.
The 19-year-old followed up making EFL Trophy appearances against Forest Green, Exeter City and Newport County by receiving a call-up to the Carabao Cup squad against Sheffield Wednesday last November.
Manager Gary Johnson told https://torquayunited.com: “He’s a centre-back, and Southampton think very highly of him.
“One of the things we had to wait a little bit for was because him and his agent were negotiating a new contract at Southampton. He’s very pleased with that, so that’s a testament to how much they like him, because they don’t want us to nick him!
“It’s a good Club to work with, they understand what we do, and we’ll have him until the end of the season”.
