Young Senegalese left back Layousse Diallo was reportedly a transfer target for Watford and AS Monaco during the summer.
The Avellino star insists his focus in on the Serie B club, and he’s hoping to improve his game.
He said: “The interest of many big clubs in me? Sincerely I’m focused on Avellino. I have to correct some flaws, they tell me I’m too impulsive.
“I’ll try to improve. My natural role is left-back and that’s why my idol is Marcelo. With the Este I also played as a midfielder and striker in Serie D.”
Should Watford be, or have been, genuinely be interested in signing Diallo, then they surely could have secured a deal over the summer, or will be able to in future.
Diallo has signed a three-year contract at Avellino, and has featured regularly for the Serie B side so far this season.
