Watford midfielder Doucoure opens door for summer exit

Watford midfielder Abdoulaye Doucoure has opened the door for a possible transfer this summer.

The Frenchman was linked with Arsenal, Liverpool and Tottenham before penning a new five-year deal with the Hornets. However, while the 25-year-old remains focused on Watford, it seems he has one eye on next summer's transfer window.

"I was linked to maybe leave the club but I was always committed to Watford and I think the ambition with the club is like mine," Doucoure said.

"I am very happy to stay here and have a great season with Watford. Of course we will see what happens in the summer but for now I am really happy with my new deal and I made a good choice."
