The man that is being linked with Saints is Marcello Gallardo who has been coach at River Plate since 2014, but he has decided to leave the club as their season has now ended.

He fits the profile that Saints will look for in a manager, he is young, he will turn 47 in January, he has been successful both as a player and a manager, winning 44 caps for Argentina.

He played some of his career in France with both Monaco & PSG, he started his coaching career in 2011 with Nacional in Uraguay winning the title there before joining River Plate in 2014 .

At River Plate he has won just one Primera Division title but numerous cups and he is widely liked and considered a success.

Now he has left to seek a new challenge and it is believed that Saints are opening talks with him to replace Ralph Hasenhuttl.
