Watford - Join the Queue
Late yesterday afternoon Watford joined the ever growing race to sign Scunthorpes Billy Sharp. Adie Boothroyd instructed his board to put a bid in for the young hot shot and it is believed to have matched the offers put in by Norwich and Wolves. Other clubs are monitoring the situation with West Brom and Derby ready to jump in. Sharp has been told by Scunthorpe to sort his future out by the end of the week and it would appear that Wolves are hot favourites to sign him, because lets face it why would he join Norwich. Hopefully Watford can sell the club to the youngster and with a Prem campaign behind us, he may see the Hornets as an ideal way to get himself promoted next season.
Billy scored 30+ goals in Scunthorpes promotion campaign and the Irons have offered him a new deal, it would be a major surprise if he signed that. As it stands it is a straight fight between Watford and Wolves. Watford have already beat Wolves to the punch with the signing of Jobi McAnuff so fingers crossed they do it again
