Watford are moving for Napoli defender Faouzi Ghoulam.

Sportitalia says the Hornets are eyeing a second Serie A signing in the January window after sealing the £7million transfer of Udinese winger Ignacio Pussetto on Tuesday.

And Watford aren't wasting any time in their pursuit of another Serie A signing after asking Napoli about signing 28-year-old Ghoulam.

Watford are desperate to sign a player with his characteristics but have yet to come to an agreement with Napoli about a fee.

The report claims that the Premier League outfit are willing to pay £8.5m for the full-back's services but Napoli are asking for more from Ghoulam's suitors.
