Southampton hero Kevin Keegan can see Saints boss Mark Hughes moving for Stoke City captain Ryan Shawcross.

Hughes replaced Mauricio Pellegrino at Saints in March and signed a three-year contract at St Mary's after keeping the club in the Premier League.

Keegan told the Daily Echo: “You'll see who he goes for, it'll tell you when he was at Stoke he'll try and get a couple of the players who he sees as very important, who he thinks is achievable to get from Stoke to Southampton and let's be honest they've gone down.

“He might go for someone like Shawcross, we'll have to wait and see."
