Roy Hodgson is on course for a dramatic encore – to replace the sacked Claudio Ranieri at Watford.
Ranieri, 70, was axed after just 112 days in charge following Friday night's catastrophic 3-0 defeat by relegation rivals Norwich, which dumped the Hornets in the Premier League drop zone for the first time this season.
Eight months after leaving Crystal Palace – and four years older than Ranieri – Watford have approached the former England coach to save them from relegation.
