The left-back has enjoyed a fantastic season for the Saints, who all but secured a top-eight finish courtesy of a 2-0 win over Everton at the weekend.

Moreover, Shaw's rising stock saw him named in the PFA Premier League team of the year yesterday alongside team-mate Adam Lallana.

His excellent performances have attracted serious interest from Manchester United and Chelsea, the club he supported as a boy.

But while admitting it is nice to be linked to the Premier League heavyweights, Shaw is determined to continue his footballing development on the South Coast.

Southampton is a great club, I'm still young and I've got plenty to learn. It's all rumours

"It's a good thing to be linked with them, but I don't concentrate with that stuff," Shaw told Sky Sports.

I've got football to focus on. That's my only thinking.

"(Southampton) is a great club, I'm still young and I've got plenty to learn. It's all rumours.

"I'm just focusing on the two games I've got left and then see what happens."
