Watford are reportedly keen on signing the Juventus midfielder.
According to a report from the Sun, Watford are closing in on Juventus star Stefano Sturaro, with Javi Gracia trying to bring the Italian to Vicarage Road initially on a season-long loan deal.
The Hornets finished last season in a disappointing 14th position in the Premier League table, and Gracia will be desperate to bolster his ranks before the transfer window slams shut tomorrow at 5pm.
Midfield will certainly be an area where Gracia would like to improve before the start of the new Premier League campaign, and Sturaro could be just the ticket.
Watford are closing in on bringing the 25-year-old Juventus ace to Vicarage Road, according to a report from the Sun.
The British tabloid claims that the Hornets are trying to bring Sturaro to the club on a season long loan, with a view to making his switch a permanent one next summer.
The Italy international is a tenacious, ball-winning midfielder, and although his technical ability is limited, he does possesses the physical capabilities need to be a success in the Premier League.
And he would surely prove to be a useful asset for Watford this season.
