Watford Mulling Over Move For Bournemouth Academy Product

Published: September 24, 2019

Allnigeriasoccer.com understands that Watford are contemplating whether or not to sign Bournemouth Academy product Joseph Oluwabusola.

The goalkeeper has been offered to the Hornets after he made it clear he wants to move onto pastures new.

The Vicarage Stadium outfit bolstered their youth team ranks with the signing of exciting winger Joseph Hungbo, Bosun Lawal and defender Jamal Balogun in the summer transfer window, while Flying Eagles hopeful Jayden Bennetts and Emmanuel Adebiyi are key players for the U23 side.

In the event that Watford pass up the opportunity to sign Oluwabusola, he will be hoping to put himself in the shop window at the 2019 FIFA U17 World Cup which begins in Brazil next month.

The 2003-born glovesman was in the Golden Eaglets squads to the regional qualifiers in Niger and U17 AFCON in Tanzania, and was included on the roster for the ongoing UEFA ASSIST Tournament in Turkey.

Watford U18s have made a blistering start to the season, winning five of their six matches and lead the way in the U18 Professional Development League South.
