Le Havre midfielder Pape Gueye is set to sign for Watford.

Watford will sign Gueye before sending him out on loan to Udinese, says the Daily Mail.

The reported loan to fellow-Pozzo club Udinese is a move that has been seen before, with several Hornets players, including Ben Wilmot, Stefano Okaka and Marvin Zeegelaar, making the switch last season.

The 20-year-old midfielder has represented France at both Under 18 and Under 19 levels.
