West Ham United and Watford are battling it out to win the services of Roberto Pereyra, according to reports emerging in Italy.

Pereyra struggled for regular first team football at Juventus last season, being limited to only nine appearances in all competitions and as a result, the midfielder is now widely expected to leave the Turin based outfit this summer.

According to reports, the Hammers and Hornets are both keen on signing Pereyra but the Premier League duo will have to splash at least £15million to sign the Argentine.

The English pair will also face competition from Napoli, who are also eyeing a move for the former River Plate and Udinese attacking midfielder.
