Watford are on the brink of sacking Quique Sanchez Flores, according to reports.

The Spaniard has failed to turn things around after replacing Javi Gracia in September.

The Telegraph says Watford are seriously thinking about sacking their second manager of this season.

The Hornets have only won once under Flores, in what is his second spell at the club.

A poor result against fellow strugglers Southampton would all but seal his exit from Vicarage Road.

The report claims Watford are not interested in turning to 'firefighter' options in Sam Allardyce or Tony Pulis.
