'It will give us a few more opportunities in this transfer window': Ralph Hasenhuttl encourages players to secure safety and keep climbing up Premier League table as Southampton target additional prize money

Ralph Hasenhuttl has reminded his players that points mean prize money for the club as they close in on guaranteeing their Premier League safety.

Southampton, who face struggling Arsenal on Thursday, are just three points short of the 40-point mark but Hasenhuttl has urged his players not to ease up when they eventually get there.

Hasenhuttl is mindful that the higher up they finish the more cash they will receive from the Premier League, which will be especially vital this summer due to the financial impact of the coronavirus crisis.
