Watford will 'sit down and talk' about any further bids Newcastle United make for Joao Pedro after the Magpies' opening offer was rejected.
That is according to Watford boss Rob Edwards, who insisted Newcastle's first bid, which was in the region of £20m, was not 'anywhere near' Pedro's valuation. However, Edwards' admission that Watford would at least consider any offers rather than flat out reject them was, perhaps, a little telling.
A senior Watford source, after all, previously told ChronicleLive the club had made their position 'very clear' when it comes to Pedro not being for sale although you would not expect the Championship outfit to say anything different about their star player. However, if Newcastle were to increase their offer, it would at least give Watford something to think about.
