Watford boss Walter Mazzarri is keen to sign Tom Cleverley on a permanent deal this summer and the Everton man has provided a boost by confirming he's keen to remain at Vicarage Road, The Sun reports.
What's the word?
After leaving Everton for Watford on-loan during the January transfer window, Tom Cleverley has enjoyed a rise in form and playing opportunities- and it could see the former Manchester United man join on a permanent basis.
The Toffees are happy to approve a sale this summer, if the price is right, and Watford boss Walter Mazzarri is keen to make a permanent deal happen- whilst Cleverley himself wants to remain at Vicarage Road.
Mazzarri has reportedly informed club chiefs to make a permanent deal happen and Watford's chances of landing his services for the long-term have been boosted by Cleverley's own comments on his future.
What was said?
Quoted by The Sun, Cleverley has said:
"I’m really enjoying my football. I needed games and I’m playing where I want to be which is in centre midfield. It’s provided me with the opportunities. Hopefully I can stay but we’ll have to see.”
