Transfer: Watford ready to offload Troost-Ekong

Sky Bet Championship club, Watford are willing to sell Nigerian defender, William Troost-Ekong, according to The Athletic.

The Hornets are determined to cut down their wage bill following their relegation from the Premier League last season.

Troost-Ekong failed to make a single appearance for the London club in the second half of the season after returning from the 2021 Africa Cup of Nations in Cameroon.

The centre-back made 17 league appearances for Watford during the campaign.

Troost-Ekong has recently been linked with a move to Major League Soccer (MLS).

Watford are also willing to listen to offers for the likes of Emmanuel Dennis and Ismaila Sarr.
