Bologna midfielder Lorenzo Crisetig is attracting Premier League interest.
The Mirror says Watford are chasing Crisetig.
The 24-year-old Italian impressed on loan at Serie A side Crotone last season and will be available this summer if his £2.6million release clause it met.
Crisetig has an option in Belgium but prefers the idea of a move to the Premier League.
The Hornets expect to learn this week if he will join them or not.
