Watford striker Isaac Success is expected to leave Vicarage Road in January.

The Watford Observer say Success is likely to leave Watford in January, in what may be a temporary move away from the club

A new club is already being sought for the Nigerian international to give him more minutes. He came close to a loan move to Hull City in August, but the deal fell through at the 11th hour.

Any such departure would leave the Hornets badly needing reinforcements out wide, with only Richarlison, Andre Carrillo and injury-hit Roberto Pereyra available should he depart.

Meanwhile, Burnley defender Stephen Ward says they'll be up for their meeting with Watford striker Andre Gray this weekend.

Ward believes the Clarets defence will be forewarned about Gray's abilities.

"We'll just get one of our lads to kick him early on," he joked.

"We know all about him and it'll be good to see him. We all know what he did for us. He's got pace, power, he can score goals, it's as simple as that."
