Standard Liege are wrapping up a deal for Watford striker Obbi Oulare.

HLN says Oulare was also interesting Royal Antwerp, but he has opted to join Standard. The influence of Michel Preud'homme has been key to the striker's decision.

All three parties are now close to agreeing terms.

Oulare will move to Standard on a season-long loan with the option to buy.
