Southampton defender Jannik Vestergaard is excited to face Borussia Monchengladbach today.

Vestergaard admits he wants to beat his old teammates.

“I am excited, because I didn't have the chance to go back and say goodbye and 'thank you'," he said.

“It has only been through WhatsApp, so I look forward to seeing them, giving them all a hug and wishing them the best for the season and the future.

“I knew this game was coming when I signed and I thought it was pretty funny.

“I've gained some friends there and I'm looking forward to seeing them. But, of course, I want to beat them!"
