Southampton boss Mark Hughes insists Manolo Gabbiadini won't leave this week.

Gabbiadini will stay at Southampton this season rather than go out on loan despite his goalscoring struggles, Hughes has revealed.

"Gabbiadini struggled to a certain extent," Hughes said.

"We're conscious he hasn't had game time here and players sometimes need games and runs of games.

"He won't be going out. I like the options I've got upfront, I have no intention of letting anybody else out. I'd be surprised if anyone else would go out now."
