SEVERAL top European clubs are reportedly watching Saints starlet Kegs Chauke with his contract due to expire in the summer.
The youngster is a regular key man for Dave Horseman’s B team, captaining the side and being an integral part of their turnaround in form.
Midfielder Chauke made his Saints debut in last season’s FA Cup win at home to Shrewsbury and has featured on the bench in the Premier League on numerous occasions.
The England under-18 international, also eligible for South Africa, is out of contract at the end of the season and yet to commit to a new deal.
Now talkSPORT are reporting that Manchester City are among German side Borussia Monchengladbach and Belgian outfit Anderlecht who are watching the youngster.
Chauke, who turns 19 in January, was plucked by Saints from non-league Thatcham Town and signed his first professional contract in January last year.
It is expected that compensation to move abroad would be low and not see Saints profit particularly well.
