Southampton loanee Josh Sims still wants a future at St Mary's.

Sims is hoping his loan spell in America with the New York Red Bulls won't see him forgotten at Saints.

He told the Daily Echo: "On paper, it seems a bit of a weird one but there was thought behind it," revealed the academy lad.

“With Ralph (Hasenhuttl), the manager at Southampton, being from a Red Bull team, the way he sort of sets up the team with tactics at Southampton is similar to this.

“Southampton are very good. They watch all the games, they ask me how I'm getting on during the week. I'm not just sort of out of sight, out of mind.

“That's a big thing as well because I'm still a Southampton player so I don't want to be forgotten about. I don't feel forgotten about."
