Stadium of Light

According to reports, Sunderland and Watford have reached an agreement over the transfer of Didier Ndong.

The 23-year-old Ndong has been a target of the Hornets throughout the month and it appears that they have finally succeeded in signing him.

The Hornets made a bid for Ndong earlier on during the month which was rejected and Chris Coleman recently confirmed that his club will not part ways with the player if they did not receive an offer which suited them.

However it appears that a deal has now gone ahead and that Ndong will link up with the Hornets initially on loan till the end of the season.

Watford will then have an opportunity to buy the player for £8 million at the end of the season, should they wish to do so.

Other players who Watford have been linked with include Leander Dendoncker and Andre Zambo Anguissa of Marseille.
