Atlético Madrid's Nico Gaitán offered to Watford and West Ham
The Argentinean is hoping to find a new home before the market closes. His plan is to get regular playing time in the Premier League.
Nicolás Gaitán has been offered to several Premier League clubs during the past few hours. The player has instructed his agents to seek a club where he will be guaranteed regular playing time - something which he is getting, or likely to under Simeone at Atleti. And his situation will only get worse when Vitolo arrives in the January window to compete for a position which Yannick Carrasco appears to have locked down as his own.
Gaitán looking to secure a loan deal
Gaitán's representatives have put proposals forward to two clubs: West Ham and Watford. The possibility that the Argentinean could move to one of the two English clubs in direct transfer seems remote but his agents are looking at the option of a one-year loan deal. With the market closing in a question of hours in England, it looks like it will be a complicated operation if Gaitán is to find a team where he will play on a regular basis. It's not going to be easy...
