Watford, Brighton chasing Swansea captain Matt Grimes

Swansea City captain Matt Grimes is wanted by Brighton and Watford.

The Mirror says Watford and Brighton have reportedly joined Fulham in the race to sign Grimes.

Journalist Pete O'Rourke says the 26-year-old could be available for a stunning cut-price fee of £1.5million.

Grimes has missed just two of 132 Championship matches across his three seasons in Wales and helped the Swans reach the play-off final in May, which they lost to Brentford.

Swansea are currently searching for a new manager after Steve Cooper left the club a week ago.
