Southampton could revive their interest in Celtic midfielder Olivier Ntcham after major target Weston McKennie snubbed the South Coast for a switch to Juventus.
The English Premier League outfit have the Parkhead playmaker on their radar with manager Ralph Hasenhuttl seeking replacements for Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg, who has joined Tottenham, and Mario Lemina, who has left for Fulham.
Hasenhuttl had hoped to land the USA ace from Schalke, but McKennie has opted for Serie A.
Juve have signed the midfielder on a £4million loan, which they're obliged to make permanent for £16.5million if certain conditions are met.
There's also the potential for a further £6.25million in bonuses if McKennie impresses in Turin.
Saints have various options, but Ntcham's name remains amongst those on the list.
The French midfielder is in his fourth season at Celtic but has been in and out of the team under Neil Lennon.
The 24-year-old has also been linked with Lyon and Porto.
Ntcham has started each of Celtic's last three games, but hasn't always been first choice at Parkhead.
He's made 123 appearances since joining from Manchester City in 2016, scoring 23 times.
