Southampton boss Ralph Hasenhuettl admits they need to make defensive signings in January.
Speaking ahead of Saturday's clash with Aston Villa, Ralph Hasenhuettl stressed the need to bolster his back line with French right back Yan Valery ruled out until the New Year due to a viral infection.
"The window in the summer wasn't perfect. It's absolutely clear that we have to do something in the full back position because even now we have one out," Hasenhuettl said.
"We only have Ryan Bertrand and Cedric Soares in these two positions, so this is definitely a position we're looking for... We'll do something."
