Watford have garnered a strong interest in Hull City winger Kamil Grosicki. The Polish international has made his desire very clear that he wants to stay in the Premier League and therefore a move to the Vicarage Road is quite possible.
The Hornets are going very smoothly in the transfer market as they have already grabbed three signings in the summer. Will Hughes, Kiko Femenia and Daniel Bachmann will be seen wearing the Hornets jersey from the next season.
The 29-year-old arrived from the French side Rennes for a fee of £7m on the deadline day of the last winter transfer window. Hull endured a pretty tough campaign in the English top tier as they had to struggle throughout the season. Despite their last gasp attempt, the Tigers didn’t have the last laugh as they got demoted to the Championship.
Hull wouldn’t stop him from making a move if any outfit is ready to meet their demand of £9m. Hull have already lost Harry Maguire to Leicester City and having made their way down to the English second tier, it is inevitable that they would lose a number of key players before the next season kicks off.
Grosicki appeared in 15 matches for Hull and enlightened the KCOM Stadium with his extraordinary performances. However, his excellent displays were not enough to save Hull following a string of bad results.
Marco Silva who was at the helm at the KCOM Stadium towards the end has been appointed the manager of Watford. He is expected to reshuffle the squad a bit and is very keen for a reunion with the highly rated winger.
Newcastle United are also digging deep in the transfer market and according to reports, they are also weighing the options to sign this Polish international. Newcastle made some progress in the transfer market as they have recently acquired the service of Florian Lejeune from Eibar.
Benitez has gone frustrated over the lack of vision in the transfer market as the Spaniard has earmarked a number of players as a part of his refurbishing plan. The Magpies are pondering their options for the Hull attacker but are yet to lodge a bid for him.
Newly appointed Leonid Slutsky has started his preseason training with the team but Grosicki hasn’t joined the side yet. He has extended his leave following his participation in the World Cup qualifier last month.
If a choice is to be made, Grosicki would prefer a move to the Vicarage Road having played under Marco Silva earlier.
