Report: Southampton line up Luke Shaw replacement

Southampton will reportedly move to sign Nice defender Timothee Kolodziejczak if Luke Shaw leaves the club this summer.

Shaw has been linked with a switch to Manchester United and Chelsea after a series of impressive displays for the Saints this season.

If the 18-year-old does depart then Mauricio Pochettino's contingency plan is to sign Kolodziejczak in a deal worth £6m, with Nice looking to cash in on the left-back, according to The Mirror.

The Frenchman has made 32 appearances for the Ligue 1 side this season, scoring two goals.
