Southampton boss Ralph Hasenhuttl has again insisted a confidence of securing Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg to a new deal.

The Denmark international's current contract will have just a year left to run when this season comes to an end. And he recently linked up with 'super-agent' Pini Zahavi.

Hasenhuttl said: “I am confident everybody wants to stay with a successful team and with a successful club and a club that shows a clear direction.

“Every player likes to play in such a club. It is about us to decide and him to decide. We have some good things to offer.

“We have some good targets to offer in terms of what we want to win in the next few years, so we will have the right conversations with everybody."
