Watford are eyeing Akhmat Grozny fullback Milad Mohammadi.

The Sun says the Hornets are interested in Iran fullback Mohammadi.

The 25-year-old starred at the World Cup with a failed somersault throw-in.

He is available on a free transfer at the end of the season when his deal expires at Akhmat Grozny in Russia.

Javi Gracia is leading the chase for the left-back, who can also play as a winger.

Celtic are also tracking Mohammadi and are looking to bring him to Scotland.

There is also expected to be competition from Turkish giants Fenerbahce.
