Southampton failed with a bid for Wolfsburg defender Felix Uduokhai earlier this month, it has been revealed.

Saints landed Kevin Danso from Augsburg in the final hours of the Premier League transfer window - but not before an attempt was made for Uduokhai.

Kicker says Saints boss Ralph Hasenhuttl is a big fan of Uduokhai and a €15m offer was tabled to VfL.

However, VfL rejected the proposal, so Saints turned to Danso.

Uduokhai is now interesting Augsburg.
