Watford must up their offer for Genoa winger Diego Perotti.

The Mirror says the Hornets have had an offer accepted for the Argentine, who used to play for Sevilla and Boca Juniors. But the player was unimpressed by the Pozzo family's first contract offer as they try to add some desperately-needed quality to their promoted squad.

New boss Quique Sanchez Flores is also keen on Real Madrid academy product Pablo Sarabia as an alternative to Perotti but won't rule out buying both due to the knockdown fees involved.
