Transfer news: Rodrigo Aguirre's agent claims Watford and Roma have made approach for Udinese striker

Roma and Watford are both chasing Udinese striker Rodrigo Aguirre, according to his agent.

The 22-year-old was loaned out twice last season, spending the first half of the campaign with Swiss side FC Lugano before joining Uruguayan club Nacional in January.

The Uruguyan has impressed back in his homeland and it was reported that Nacional may try to keep him permanently.

But Aguirre's agent, Pablo Betancourt, has now revealed he has received big offers from Europe.

"Roma and Watford have asked for information to take Aguirre on loan," Betancourt told La Ora Deportiva.
