Puel must scout these 3 players for Southampton over the international break

Vaclav Kadlec

Another young player who appears to have potential is 24-year-old forward Vaclav Kadlec, who played against the Saints for Sparta Prague in their Europa League meeting last month.

Kadlec made the move back to Sparta in the summer, and has already hit the ground running with three goals in his last four matches, including a brace in their impressive 3-1 win over Inter Milan.

A Czech Republic international who has been capped 13 times by his nation, he is likely to get minutes on the pitch in their qualifiers against Germany and Azerbaijan – Southampton should monitor his performance in those two games.
