Watford have made a major breakthrough in their pursuit of Edoardo Bove, with multiple reports confirming that Roma have accepted their latest bid for the player. The midfielder is now locked in personal discussions with the buying side as they look to get a deal done as quickly as they can. While key details still need resolving, the player's move now appears to be a matter of “when”, not “if”. Talks are underway, and with no competition emerging, Watford are seen as the sole contenders for the player's signature. So far this season, Watford are steady at both ends (1.48 goals scored per game, 1.16 goals conceded per game). The role for Edoardo Bove would be to keep that balance while lifting performances across the pitch. Roma continue to be linked with Jayden Oosterwolde, Mohamed Salah and Morten Frendrup while Watford are also rumoured to be tracking Julio Cesar Soler.
