Three days ago, Leggo reported Sunderland and Nottingham Forest are keen on Edoardo Bove. Later that day, Il Messaggero explained Everton and Watford have come forward to sign the AS Roma player in the winter market.
The 23-year-old hasn’t returned to the pitch since suffering a cardiac arrest in December 2024. He’s ready to return, but the regulations don’t allow him to continue in Italy.
Bove is looking for a new club outside Italy and Watford could be his next destination.
Gianluca Di Marzio now report the latest on his situation and Watford’s interest.
Bove has a contract lasting until 2028 with the Serie A side and is close to terminating it. Roma, according to the journalist, should make it official this weekend.
It then allows the midfielder to join a new club on a free transfer in the winter market. In the last few hours, Watford have emerged as a strong candidate to secure his services.
Watford can allow the Argentine to restart his career in the Championship. Di Marzio says this would ‘undoubtedly be a significant move for the Hornets.’
Over at Gazzetta dello Sport, they report Bove has received numerous offers from top division clubs. However, the player has chosen Watford as his desire is to start from a lower league.
Roma need to formalise his contract termination. There’s expectation it’ll done soon as Gazzetta report Bove will sign his contract with Watford early next week.
Bove has picked Watford amid interest from Sunderland, Nottingham Forest and Everton.
