Agent insists Watford deal not watertight for Le Havre midfielder Pape Gueye

The agent of Le Havre midfielder Pape Gueye insists an agreement with Watford is not yet signed off.

With his deal to expire in June, it's emerged Gueye has signed a five-year pre-contract with Watford.

But agent Pierre-Henri Bovis told the Athletic: “Nothing has been completed yet. We have a kind of contract dating from January. Now we are trying to solve the possible problems. The circumstances are very strange. Watford communication doesn't change anything for us."

However a source said, "Any private discussion with the old and the new representative does not affect the contract in question. He signed an agreement in person in January as stipulated by FIFA and Premier League rules. It has nothing to do with his registration. He is and will remain a Watford player."
