Watford, Crystal Palace in Athletic Bilbao talks for Unai Nunez

Athletic Bilbao defender Unai Nunez is attracting Premier League interest.

AS says Athletic sports chief Rafa Alkorta has been contacted by three English clubs for the Spain U21 international.

Cardiff City, Watford and Crystal Palace are all in talks for the defender.

Watford and Palace are willing to offer €20m for Nunez, while Cardiff would rather do business at the end of the season.

For his part, Nunez is prepared to leave Athletic as he feels he has a better chance of regular first team football in England.

The defender's clause is set at €30m.
