Watford are in talks with West Brom over signing defender Craig Dawson, Sky Sports News understands.
West Brom, who reached the Sky Bet Championship play-offs last season, do not want to sell Dawson, but he only has one year left on his contract.
The 29-year-old has amassed over 200 games for the Baggies since he arrived at the Hawthorns from Rochdale in 2010.
He could follow Ben Foster in making the move to Vicarage Road, after the goalkeeper left West Brom last summer following the club's relegation from the Premier League.
Watford are also looking at signing Beijing Gouan defender and South Korea international Kim Min-Jae, who the Hornets enquired about in January.
Rennes winger Ismaila Sarr is interesting Watford too - but the Ligue 1 club's asking price could prove a problem.
Reports in France claim the 21-year-old winger, who was part of Senegal's World Cup squad in Russia last summer, would cost over £30m, with two years left on his Rennes contract.
