Watford look like securing the signature of Manchester United's new keeper Ben Foster.

The 22-year-old was snapped up by United earlier this month when they agreed a £1 million plus deal with Stoke City.

United boss Sir Alex Ferguson sees Foster as a potential number one at Old Trafford, but he also feels that the youngster will benefit from spending the coming campaign on loan.

It was whilst with Wrexham last term that Foster originally caught the eye of Ferguson.

Having fielded a number of enquiries, it is now believed that United have agreed to Watford's request to take Foster for the next ten months.
