Jay Rodriguez has been linked with a move to Tottenham Hotspur following Mauricio Pochettino's appointment as manager at White Hart Lane.
The striker, who is currently recovering from an ACL injury, has also been linked to Liverpool and Arsenal recently.
However, the Daily Star reports that Pochettino's involvement at Spurs could give the North London side the advantage in the race to sign the 24-year-old.
Rodriguez joined Southampton from Burnley in 2012, following the club's promotion to the Premier League.
