Southampton head coach Mark Wotte is prepared to play the waiting game as he attempts to determine his playing staff for next season in League One.

The Saints boss has been hard at work holding discussions with players currently contracted to the club and laying down expectations for the season ahead.

"I've spoken to players like Marek Saganowski, Grzegorz Rasiak and Nathan Dyer about what they should expect in pre-season," he told the club's official website.

"Nathan has said that he hopes to stay at Swansea because he wants to play Championship football, but we will only allow that if Swansea make the right offer from him, otherwise he is due back with us.

"Grzegorz has spoken with Watford and they have made an offer to him to extend his loan but there are some financial issues with that.

"I'm also currently talking to agents at the moment regarding the situation with some of our younger players to see if some of their contracts can be extended."
