Southampton defender Jan Bednarek insists Sofiane Boufal can have a future at St Mary's.

Boufal has returned to Saints this summer following a year-long loan spell with Celta Vigo in Spain.

And after competing for Morocco in the Africa Cup of Nations last month, he finally met Saints boss Ralph Hasenhuttl.

Bednarek told the Daily Echo: You need to be ready because he can do anything that he wants.

You need to keep your legs shut so that you don't get nutmegged.

Sofiane is a very good player. I think it's really difficult to defend against him and I think he could cause a lot of problems for Premier League defenders.

He is a positive person and a very funny guy. As you can see he has a lot of quality on the pitch and he can help us a lot."
