PerottiBBC Sport has learned that newly promoted Watford are closing in on the signing of Genoa winger Diego Perotti.

The Hornets have already lured Sebastian Prodl and Giedrius Arlauskis to Vicarage Road, and the summer recruitment looks set to continue.

According to BBC Sport, Watford have had a £7 million bid for Genoa’s Diego Perotti accepted by the Serie A side.

The 26-year-old began his professional career at Sevilla and went on to make 117 La Liga appearances for los Rojiblancos, scoring 9 goals in the process.

Perotti was sold to Genoa last summer and he in turn enjoyed a very successful season at Stadio Luigi Ferraris, bagging 4 goals and producing 5 assists.

He now looks set to complete a switch to Watford, who are priced at 2.25 (5/4) to avoid the drop upon their return to the Premier League.
