Southampton are chasing Liverpool striker Nathan Eccleston.
The 19-year-old spent time with League One outfit Huddersfield last season and scored on his Terriers debut against Yeovil Town.
Eccleston has featured twice in Europa League action for Liverpool this term while he also came off the bench late on against Northampton.
Southampton manager Nigel Adkins and chairman Nicola Cortese watched Eccleston score in Monday's 3-1 reserves defeat to Chelsea.
