Watford are being linked with Sampdoria striker Patrik Schick.

The Watford Observer says they're keeping tabs on Schick following a series of impressive performances for the Serie A side.

A run of nine goals from six starts and a number of cameos from the bench have propelled Schick into the eyes of the European elite, and clubs including Chelsea, Everton and Inter are also said to be interested in signing the youngster.

He only joined ninth-placed Sampdoria from Sparta Prague last summer and has a strike rate of one goal every 115 minutes this season in the Italian top flight.
