Southampton manager Ronald Koeman has accepted that some of his star players could have their heads turned by clubs playing Champions League football this summer.
Victor Wanyama and Sadio Mane are among the players who have been linked with other clubs.
The Saints could finish in a Europa League spot by the end of today's final round of Premier League fixtures, but Koeman believes that the lure of the Champions League could be too strong for some of his players.
"We know we are Southampton, [we would] like to keep everybody in [the squad] but still, for a Southampton player, if a big team in the Champions League comes [in] it is always interesting for the player," Goal.com quotes Koeman as saying.
"I can mention to the club that nobody can leave like I did in January but I don't make the last call in this club, that is the board. How strong we are next season depends whether we can keep everyone for next season."
Meanwhile, Koeman has ruled out replacing Roberto Martinez at Everton.
