Southampton captain Claus Lundekvam is hoping to be back in action for the start of the new Championship season. The Saints defender is recovering from a bad ankle injury sustained in the 4-1 win against Southend on 6 May.
The injury kept the Norwegian out of the club's play-off campaign at the end of last season.
Lundekvam told BBC Radio Solent: "I am confident I will be back in time for the opening game. It is a matter of me building up my fitness."
