Everton and Watford to battle for Serie A left-back

Everton and Watford are reportedly set to battle for the signing of Bologna star Adam Masina this summer.

The left-back enjoyed a strong season in Serie A with his side and it seems a summer move could be in the offing, as Premier League clubs increase their interest in him.

Reports in Italy have indicated that the Toffees are looking to recruit the left-back this summer, with Marco Silva keen to see defensive options added to his new squad.

Masina, who is a former international for Italy’s Under-21 side, has been linked with a move to Watford for some time now. Reports earlier on in the month even indicated that the Hornets were in negotiations over a move for the player.

However, Everton appear to have thrown their hat into the ring, with Masina emerging as a target for the Toffees.

The 24-year-old started 33 games for Bologna in Serie A last season and was a standout performer for his side.
