Watford fail with audacious move for Boufal

 

Watford have had a €10m (£8.4m) bid for Sofiane Boufal rejected by French side Lille, according to Get French Football.

 

Boufal, 22, has been heavily linked with a move away from Lille after just 12 months at the club but the Ligue 1 side are demanding €20m (£16m) for his services.

 

Chelsea and Arsenal are reportedly monitoring Boufal this summer but there hasn’t been a formal approach by either of those sides.
