Watford head coach Slaven Bilic has confirmed that he is interested in signing Manchester United winger Facundo Pellistri in this month's transfer window.
The Uruguayan, who made his long-awaited debut for the Reds during Tuesday night's 3-0 Carabao Cup quarter-final victory over Charlton Athletic, has been heavily linked with the prospect of a departure this month. He has been starved of opportunities at Old Trafford since joining the club in October 2020 and is desperate to earn more regular first-team football.
He spent last season on loan at Spanish side Alaves, racking up 23 appearances, before returning to United and being included on the pre-season tour of Thailand and Australia. He went to the World Cup with Uruguay and made three appearances, despite not earning a single minute worth of first-team football this term prior to the tournament in Qatar.
