PSG 'join race for Everton target Doucoure'

Paris Saint-Germain have reportedly joined the race to sign Watford midfielder Abdoulaye Doucoure during the January transfer window.

Doucoure has previously been linked with Everton, where he would be reunited with former Watford boss Marco Silva, while Tottenham Hotspur and Arsenal have also been credited with an interest in the past.

The Daily Mail reports that Ligue 1 champions PSG are now also tracking the 25-year-old ahead of a possible £30m move next month.

Doucoure has established himself as a key player for Watford over the past season-and-a-half, scoring nine goals and creating eight more in the Premier League alone during that time.

The Frenchman was also linked with a move away from Vicarage Road in the summer, but he instead signed a new five-year contract to keep him at the club until 2023.

Clubs have not been put off by that, though, and further interest is expected to arrive when the transfer window reopens next month.
