They can be as keen as they want, he's not going anywhere. The Pozzo's want us promoted this season and Abdi is one of the key players to make that happen.

"Udinese-Watford, sinergia nel segno del patron Pozzo. Proprio da Udine al club inglese potranno arrivare altri tre rinforzi: Marco Davide Faraoni, riscattato oggi dall’Inter, è un nome che si sta valutando. Ma anche Angella e Fabbrini sono due ipotesi possibili."

Sometimes Google is less than perfect ;)

"Udinese v Watford, synergy in the sign of the patron Pozzo. It is from Udine to the English club will get three more reinforcements: Marco Davide Faraoni, Inter redeemed today, is a name that you're considering. But even Angella and Fabbrini are two possible hypotheses."
 
Rumour appears to be gathering pace:

Fresh reports from Sky Italia suggest Fabbrini, Angella and Faraoni are in their way from Udinese to Watford, though not sure if permanent or as loans. Faraoni confirmed as bought totally today by udinese from Inter in deal that takes Handanovic other way permanently. Entirely possible Merkel could be next if Udinese win blind auction against Genoa tomorrow. Ranegie also still on the cards.
 
It is good being linked with all these players, but only if they come over along with most of the first-teamers from last season. We don't want to have the first 5-10 games where the players are having to gel again!

If we can still get the likes of Ekstrand, Pudil, Battocchio, Abdi, Anya, Cassetti, hopefully Vydra and I'd like to give Neuton another go, then it will keep some consistency in the squad, with a few to add that extra bit of quality!

I've read that pre-season trainging starts next week (week today, I think) so should know better who is over by then, but also somewhere that they will be getting announced on the 1st of July. With the "embargo", the registrations are probably just taking that bit longer so the FL can go through it - plus the players will all be on holiday! So no huge rush to hear who is coming and who is not....

What is with these loan rumours? Does any team really think they can get him on loan? Whats in it for the Pozzo's? The only team worth loaning him to is us because he can help us get promotion which in turn will line their pockets with gold and at the end of the day, that's what matters most to them.

Either he is sold at their asking price or comes back on loan to us, I'm sure those are the only two options that the Pozzo's are considering.
 
Watford have made such progress in the last year, but along with the good always comes some bad. The bad is an agent who conducts his business in public and will probably have a disruptive influence on all around him. What we must now learn to accept is that no player is bigger than the club. Whilst I am only talking about the agent ( to his credit I have not seen any public comments from MV ) I think the next step to learn for us Watford fans, is that no player is bigger than the club, and that some agents will only act in their own best interests. If we are to lose MV, then we must appreciate the pleasure he has given us this season, say thank you to him and wish him well. Then if he does go, pour a bucket of smelly cold water on the agent's head.
 
Sounds good but I hope we have some concentre news on transfers fairly soon...

Just to see the squad building and so we don't have a late rush of them affecting early season forum.
