Marvin Sordell attracting Premier League interest

Watford striker Marvin Sordell is attracting interest from clubs in the Premier League and Championship, according to BBC Sport.

The England Under-21s international has been withdrawn from the Hornets squad for their game against Millwall tonight at the request of the Watford owner.

The Hertfordshire based outfit had earlier accepted a bid from Wigan Athletic for defender Adrian Mariappa.

However, the centre-half rejected a move to the DW Stadium and has been named in Sean Dyche's starting lineup this evening.

Sordell has been linked with Blackburn Rovers and Bolton Wanderers.
