Kyle Walker-Peters has outlined his ambition to captain Southampton.

The English fullback has become a regular starter for Saints since joining from Tottenham in 2020.

"I want to be a captain one day," Walker told the Daily Echo.

"I've started to encourage and speak to the younger players a bit more, being vocal in post-match meetings.

"If I disagree or agree with something, then I'm always giving my opinion. It's something that I am trying to add to my personality.

"(Romeu) He's a leader. He is a leader. Someone I took a lot from, so aggressive on the pitch.

"Coming from Tottenham I wasn't so aggressive and didn't really have that bite that he has, but training with and playing with him I have got that now.

"He's someone who I have learnt a lot from, someone who was really approachable and a top, top player."
