Updated 3 hours ago

Southampton have confirmed the appointment of 32-year-old Will Still as their new manager.

He succeeds Ivan Juric, who left the club in April after relegation from the Premier League was confirmed with seven games to go.

Still revealed last weekend that he would leave his position at Ligue 1 side Lens so that he could return to the UK.

"There is huge potential here and we have a great opportunity to do something special," said Still, who has signed a three-year deal.

"The project that has been laid out to me is very impressive and, all together, I believe we can build a clear identity and a very positive future for the team.
