Juventus and they are hoping to close the deal in the coming days.

The English Premier League club are determined to meet the requirements of their new manager Walter Mazzarri who considers the midfielder as the right candidate to bolster the Hornets’ attacking options.

According to Sky Sport Italia, Watford will offer €10 million plus bonuses to Juventus for the 25-year-old midfielder.

Pereyra joined Juventus on a season-long loan deal in the summer of 2014 and his transfer was made permanent the following year after the Bianconeri paid Udinese €14 million for the versatile midfielder.

He enjoyed his first season with Juventus appearing in 52 matches in all competitions, a season record he shared with teammates Claudio Marchisio and Leonardo Bonucci.

His second season wasn’t as successful, as he suffered from some injuries and recorded only 16 appearances.
