Southampton boss Mauricio Pochettino is convinced that Luke Shaw will still be at the club next season, but he has admitted the Saints board will have the final say on the defender’s future. Both Man United and Chelsea have been linked with moves for Shaw and they are both willing to make big offers for him.
The owner’s of Southampton will decide the players future but Pochettino believes they will try and hold on to the England international. The Saints boss said:
“At the end of the day Luke Shaw is a player that belongs to Southampton, and it will be the club, Southampton, that makes the decision as to what happens with his future. Of course there will be interest for him, but so far, right now he’s a player at Southampton and it looks as though it will continue that way.
“There are a lot of players who are under interest at Southampton, but they are all very happy at the football club and most of them are under long-term contracts. They understand the situation of what it means to be a professional player in the Premier League. There’s nothing really we have to speak about on that front.
“If there is any decision to be made, it is for the owners, not for me.”
