A move to France could be on for Watford striker Stefano Okaka.

Marseille have been linked with the Hornets striker, who has had to make do with a bit-part role this season and made just six appearances so far.

“The interest from OM? It's a bit early to talk about Marseille. Stefano's desire during this transfer window is to do what he likes, play football," brother and agent Carlo Okaka said.

“Ligue 1 is a very good competition, with many good clubs at the highest level. So yes, we are interested to go to France."

Okaka has already gone public with his desire to play regular football and issued a come and get me plea to former Watford boss Walter Mazzarri yesterday.
