Southampton: When are the 14 Saints in international action?

14 Southampton players will be in action for their respective national sides over the course of the next two weeks.

Just the 10 Southampton players jetted off for their countries in September’s international break, but call-ups for Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg, Manolo Gabbiadini and Maya Yoshida, and a return to fitness for Shane Long see four more potentially in action.

Hojbjerg has been rewarded for his early-season form and will hope to play in two upcoming games for Denmark alongside Saints teammate Jannik Vestergaard, whilst Gabbiadini has been included for Italy for the first time since last November.

The Saints representatives will be preparing for a variety of UEFA Nations League and friendly games, and will be hoping to return to England ahead of the next round of Premier League fixtures with no fresh injury concerns.

Below is a list of when each player could be in action for the next two weeks:
