Following claims Amadou Diawara had turned down the chance to sign for Wolverhampton Wanderers, preferring to wait for an offer from AS Roma, only one Premier League club is left in the race to sign the defensive midfielder.
Watford were among those reportedly interested, said to have ‘made a move’ for the 21-year-old a week ago, and Corriere dello Sport continue to push their involvement in the saga on Thursday.
Explaining the situation at Napoli, the Italian newspaper believe the youngster has a number of potential routes he could take this summer.
One would see him included in his club’s attempts to sign Kostas Manolas from Roma, but if that doesn’t take place, Milan in Serie A would also welcome him.
As for a move abroad, Corriere state his profile is appealing in the Premier League, where Watford ‘could give him a future’.
There’s no mention of how much he would cost, but the belief in Italy in recent months is that the Guinea international’s value has dropped down to around €20m, making him very affordable for interested sides, like Javi Gracia’s.
With a month and a half left in the transfer window, there’s plenty of time for the Hornets to make a decision.
They just can’t put it off for too long, especially with other clubs circling.
