AC Milan defender Ricardo Rodriguez has reportedly emerged as a transfer target for Watford.
While Rodriguez has been a regular in the Milan starting lineup since moving to San Siro in July 2017, the Switzerland international has made just five appearances during the current campaign.
As a result of Milan's financial issues, the 27-year-old will almost certainly receive numerous offers from elsewhere during the January window.
According to the Daily Mail, Watford have already made contact with the Italian giants regarding a deal for the left-back.
With the Hornets facing a relegation scrap during the second half of the season, newly-appointed boss Nigel Pearson is keen to make new additions at the beginning of 2020.
The report suggests that Milan will be willing to part ways with Rodriguez due to their need to fund the wages of Zlatan Ibrahimovic, who is returning to the club after his departure from Los Angeles Galaxy.
