Watford are the only club that have placed a concrete bid for Diego Perotti

Watford have made no secret of their desire to sign Perotti and had recently placed an offer of around £7million to sign the winger.

However, it had been reported that the Hornets would face competition from the likes of Lazio, AC Milan, Inter Milan and Napoli for the signature of the Genoa man.

Genoa president Enrico Preziosi has moved on to reject such claims and has insisted that Watford remain the only club to have placed a concrete offer for the player.

Preziosi told Secolo XIX: "Watford aside, there have been no other formal offers for Perotti. Lazio, Milan, Inter and Napoli showed interest, but then nothing concrete. In my view he's staying and will not go anywhere."
