Sky Bet Championship side Watford have reportedly made a short-term loan offer for Nigerian international Kelechi Iheanacho. The Hornets are keen to bring in the forward for the remainder of the season as they bolster their squad for the campaign ahead.

Iheanacho joined Sevilla last summer but has struggled to make an impact at the Spanish club. The 28-year-old has yet to score in nine league appearances for the Rojiblancos, raising questions about his form and fitness. Reports suggest Sevilla is open to letting him leave this month.

During his time at Leicester City, Iheanacho was a consistent performer, scoring 61 goals and providing 34 assists in 232 appearances. Watford will hope he can rediscover that form if the deal goes through, potentially boosting their push for success in the Championship.
