Moroccan international
Sofiane Boufal.
Boufal spent last
season on loan at Celta
Vigo after a dressing-
room bust-up with
Hasenhuttl’s predecessor
Mark Hughes but came
off the bench in Saints’
3-0 opening-day defeat
at Burnley.
Hasenhuttl said: “He
showed with the ball he
has a lot of quality.
“There are three
offensive positions and
perhaps one of
those is for him.
“In the last
game I brought
him on as
substitute and in
a short time he
showed he can help
us massively.”
Saints have a daunting
early fixture list and
Hasenhuttl went on: “In
the first seven weeks we
play four times against
big teams so it’s all about
working against the ball
and being committed.
“To be successful, it is
not enough to work only
when you have the ball.
You must also work when
you don’t have it.
“If you are also good
with the ball it’s perfect.”

BY ALEX CROOK
RALPH HASENHUTTL is
ready to pitch Premier
League rookie Kevin
Danso up against the
mighty Mo Salah today.
Austrian Danso
(above) joined Saints
from Augsburg only in
the final hours of transfer
deadline day but the
20-year-old centre-back
could make his debut
when European
champions Liverpool
visit St Mary’s.
Saints boss
Hasenhuttl
(right) said:
“Some players
need a long
time to adapt
to our game,
others adapt more
quickly.
“It depends on the
history they have, for
what club they played,
and what habits they
have learned.
“Kevin has now been
with us three times on
the training pitch and has
shown he has good
qualities. A young player
is open-minded so let’s
have a look.”
Another player who
has battled his way back
into Hasenhuttl’s plans is
