Luke Shaw has reportedly indicated that he will delay any move to Manchester United until he finds out who will be the club's new manager.
The Southampton defender has been repeatedly linked with a move to United, and recent reports have suggested that a £30m deal could be completed in the near future.
However, the club's decision to sack David Moyes earlier this week is believed to have halted any progress, with Shaw eager to wait to see who his new manager would be if he signs this summer.
According to the Daily Mail, the 18-year-old's main concern is to find out whether he will be assured of regular first-team football.
Southampton director Les Reed insisted on Friday that no talks have taken place with other clubs regarding the availability of their players.
