French lower league star Florian Aye is attracting Premier League interest.

The Mirror says Southampton are leading a host of Premier League clubs interested in Aye.

Saints boss Ralph Hasenhuttl wants to overhaul his squad this summer, with Charlie Austin one of the players heading out.

And the Austrian already has his sights on Aye, 22, who has scored 18 goals for Clermont Foot in French Second Division.

The former France Under-20 international moved to Clermont only last summer after starting his career with Auxerre.

West Ham and Leeds are also interested.
