Iturbe set to join Watford

21 December 2015 - 13:22

Roma attacker Juan Iturbe has reportedly arrived in London to finalize a six-month loan deal with Premier League side Watford.

  • Chelsea make first move to sign Xabi Alonso
  • Chelsea ready new contract for star midfielder
  • It had been claimed over the past week that both clubs had come to terms over a temporary move for the 22-year-old.

    Sky Sports News says the former Porto man has flown to the English capital to complete the deal, which includes a buyout clause at the end of the season.

    Iturbe is understood to have opted for the move following the lack of playing time at Roma.

    Watford currently sit seventh in the league standings, just a point adrift of the Champions League places.
