Watford are plotting a swoop for Feyenoord midfielder Lex Immers as they continue to bolster their squad ahead of returning to the Premier League.

The Hornets have already been active in the transfer market this summer having secured six players including Etienne Capoue and Valon Behrami.

And manager Quique Flores is showing an interest in attacking midfielder Immers.

The 29-year-old has scored 35 goals in three seasons at Feyenoord, who are also set to lose skipper Jordy Clasie to Southampton.

Flores is also hoping to land Tottenham midfielder Benjamin Stambouli, having agreed a £4m fee, but Ligue 1 giants Paris St-Germain have also made a surprise move for the Frenchman.

However in Watford's favour, Stambouli rejected an approach from hometown club Marseille because he wanted to continue in the Barclays Premier League.
