Watford transfer news: M’Baye Niang to cost £13.5million from AC Milan if he scores ten goals

Feb 02, 2017

WATFORD will be forced to shatter their transfer record to sign M’Baye Niang – if the striker bags ten goals.

Niang’s club AC Milan inserted a performance related clause in the on-loan Frenchman’s deal with Watford.

It means Watford will have to tie up a permanent move and sign Niang for a whopping £13.5million in the summer.

Niang’s bid to reach double figures continues against Burnley at Vicarage Road tomorrow.

And Troy Deeney believes the shock 2-1 win at Arsenal on Tuesday has lifted the mood at Watford after a slump.

Watford skipper Deeney said: “We have been on a bad run and were poor against Millwall in the FA Cup.

"The gaffer asked for a reaction - we made our fans realise that we really wanted it."

Watford lie 13th in the table and will be hoping to improve on their current position during the second half of the season.
