"Red Star Belgrade player Sherif Ndiaye (29) has an offer from Watford and is currently negotiating personal terms, Max Sport has learned.The striker showed in the Champions League that he is one of the best individuals for the Red and Whites, capable of playing at the elite level, which has attracted clubs from all over Europe.
The Championship club was specific and offered Red Star 10,000,000 euros.Given that the player is 29 years old, the Marakana would not mind letting him go, only if he manages to agree personal terms. As our portal has learned, the Senegalese is currently working on it, and the outcome will be known in the next few days, because the transfer window in most European leagues ends on Friday evening.
At the beginning of the transfer window, the plan was not to go at any price, except for an indecent offer, because he is very important for Vladan Milojević's system.However, taking into account his age, it is clear that Red Star will not receive such a generous offer for this player in the future and in this regard, they are ready to give him up.
Counting all competitions this season, in 25 games he scored 15 goals and provided three assists, which is a very solid statistic."

There is no way that Watford can afford €10 million nor that Gino Pozzo would pay so much for a 29 year old player. It would also be a waste of resources when there are other positions which also need to be addressed. Interestingly, he has the same agent as Étienne Capoue. He was linked with Reims (Ligue 1 in France) at the beginning of January and Red Star Belgrade's valuation was then reported to be €6 million.
