He told French television station Canal Plus: "I think I am going to leave Watford. The club know my ambitions and want to help me get to the next level.

"I'm flattered by the interest of PSG but for the moment there's nothing concrete. I will focus on my performance for my club. I've not had contact with PSG and they've not contacted Watford.

"My goal is to play well for Watford and then maybe join a Champions League team.

"This winter we'll study all possibilities on offer. The most important thing for me is to continue to progress and with my performances.

"Staying in England is a possibility and the Italian league is becoming more interesting. There are clubs who have returned to show interest in me again.

"The first criteria for me is that the club plays in the Champions League."
