Premier League clubs chasing Watford starlet Deeney

14 August 2013 - 08:01

<strong>Premier League clubs are believed to be closely monitoring Watford striker Troy Deeney after a terrific start to the Championship season earlier this month</strong>.

  • Arsenal & Chelsea want Junior Kroupi
  • Chelsea keen on signing Newcastle United winger
  • Tottenham Hostpurs, Fulham and West Ham are all reportedly assessing Deeney after the 25 year old started the new season in fine form scoring 4 goals in 2 matches.<br />

    Deeney has been in good goalscoring form for The Hornets since last season after he ended up with 20 goals in the  2012-13 season. <br />

    Deeney's fine performance during Watford's 6-1 demolition of Bournemouth witnessed the first hat trick by any Hornets player at the Vicarage road since David Connolly in 1996.<br />

    Both Fulham and West Ham bosses have been looking for a new striker this transfer window and Deeney could well be one of the top targets for either of the two clubs this summer.<br />

    However, Watford boss Zianfranco Zola admitted that he would not want to lose Deeney but added that anything can still happen.<br />

    "The transfer window is still open - and that could be a problem."
