Watford are set to offer Ashley Young a shock return to the club — 14 years after he left Vicarage Road.
Young, 35, is poised to leave Inter Milan this summer when his contract expires.
Watford are ready to offer an initial 12-month deal if they secure promotion back to the Premier League.
Xisco’s men currently occupy the second automatic promotion spot in the Championship, seven points clear of third-placed Brentford with just five games to play.
Watford want to add top-flight experience to their squad if they can bounce straight back into the Premier League.
