SIX of Southampton’s senior players have been called up for international duty this month before the final stretch of the Championship campaign.
Three players will be looking to navigate the World Cup qualification play-offs to help their country qualify for this summer’s tournament in the USA, Canada and Mexico.
Cyle Larin’s Canada have already qualified as one of the home nations, while Ross Stewart is aiming to earn a recall into the Scotland squad.
He missed out this month, perhaps due to his recent injury. Only two current academy players will go away with their nation this time around.
For the final international break of the 2025/26 season, here is every Saints player heading away to represent their country.
