Southampton boss Hasenhuttl wary of in-form Leicester striker Iheanacho

Southampton boss Ralph Hasenhuttl admits he's a fan of Leicester City striker Kelechi Iheanacho.

The two teams meet later tonight.

Asked how he planned to contain the Nigerian, Hasenhuttl said: "He [Iheanacho] did a good job in the last game, he has one chance and his chance was a goal so the rest of the game I didn't see him to be honest.

"You must be always careful, don't give him the chance in and around the box, he has a very good finish, self-confident at the moment.

"Premier League teams have strikers that are strong and that can hurt you."
