Ralph Hasenhuttl says Che Adams is a role model for his Southampton players.
The striker struggled mightily after joining Saints from Birmingham City last summer.
But Adams stuck it out and is now a valued member of Hasenhuttl's side.
"He's a role model for the time we went through – from zero to hero at the moment," said the Austrian manager.
"I think we are always believing in what he's doing.
"I am very happy for him that he can show more and more that he's a Premier League player – and a very good one.
"And he is still not stopping learning because I think he has a fantastic mentality – like all my players."
