Serie A Giants Eye Deadline Day Move For Super Eagles Star William Troost-Ekong

• Serie A side Bologna are eyeing a move for Super Eagles defender William Troost-Ekong before the close of the window
• The Nigerian Super Eagles defender has not been having active playing time at English club Watford
• William Troost-Ekong has been one of the best defenders in the Super Eagles and has featured in 2 games

Super Eagles defender William Troost-Ekong could be on his way to the Italian Serie A before the end of the transfer window as Bologna are reportedly eyeing a move for him.

William Troost-Ekong is currently playing for English Championship side Watford who relegated last season from the Premier League.

The Nigerian has a contract with Watford until 2025, but he is currently out of favour at the club having made just one appearance in the Championship.

The 62-cap Nigeria international would likely jump at the chance to return to the Italian Serie A, where he once performed creditably for Udinese.

Although Bologna have signed some defenders so far this season, but the club's eggheads still want to add more this summer.

What is their position on the Serie A table?

Bologna are currently not finding it rosy this season in the Serie A as they have played 3 games so far and they are yet to record any win and currently occupying 16th position.
