Sacked AS Monaco coach Leonardo Jardim is being linked with a Premier League move.

The Daily Express says less than a week on from his Monaco sacking, Jardim is being lined-up to replace Mark Hughes at Southampton if results do not improve.

The newspaper does not put a timeline on how long Hughes has to improve things, but says the style of football at St Mary's has not endeared the club's owners to him.

Jardim, meanwhile, is available after being dumped and replaced at ASM by Thierry Henry.

The Portuguese has so far kept his own counsel since his dismissal.
