Watford are taking a look at the youngster, who appeared for both of Queens Park Rangers’ development sides last season.
A player last seen in Queens Park Rangers’ academy was part of the Watford Under-23s squad beaten 6-0 at Leeds United on Monday.
Watford named an unidentified trialist in their travelling party at Elland Road, which the official teamsheet later revealed to be Dejahrn Grant.
Grant was part of QPR’s U18s side last season and occasionally appeared at U23-level – scoring against Coventry City.
But the forward is not currently listed as part of either team on Queens Park Rangers’ official website, which suggests he has left Loftus Road.
Even though the transfer window is closed, Watford could still offer a contract to Grant if he was freed by QPR prior to August’s deadline.
Whether or not that happens remains to be seen, however.
Leeds ran out 6-0 winners against Hayden Mullins’ Watford U23s, courtesy of goals from Pascal Struijk, Eddie Nketiah (two), Tyler Roberts, Robbie Gotts and Luke Ayling.
