SAINTS defender Jan Bednarek has been named in Poland's squad for this summer's European Championship.

The 25-year-old has 29 senior caps for his nation, with his only previous goal coming in the 2018 World Cup.

And Bednarek is now set for another taste of tournament action, named in boss Paulo Sousa's squad for the competition which begins on June 11.

Poland are set for group fixtures against Slovakia, Spain and Sweden.

They will face Slovakia in St Petersburg, before heading to Sevilla to take on Spain and then rounding off their Group E campaign back in Russia against Janne Andersson's Swedes.

Bednarek has played a key role for Saints this season, starting every fixture before the weekend win over Fulham, which he missed due to a minor ankle injury.

He is set to return for tomorrow's visit of Leeds United to St Mary's.
