    I'd be surprised if its permanent. Granada seemed to rate him.

    Been more widely reported as a loan. Standard Liege doesn't actually disclose if it's a loan or a transfer.

    Haven't seen a single fee spoken about. It's a loan.

    If it's going to be a problem getting a work permit and he's no better than Doucoure and various other players we're linked with (Chalobah and Lemina) then why not get a fee for him?

    He's young and talented. Maybe he will be sold. I reckon he's more likely to go to Udinese though. They sell about 6-7 players a season. They have a very high turnover of players.

    He must play for us one day just so we can use the "allo, allo, Watford Agbo, Watford Agbo, allo... " etc chant.

    The group definitely seem to rate him, if it is a permanent move you can be assured that there will be numerous future options.

    The wobby say a lot of things. I don't think they actually have anyone ITK anymore. Wobby as a whole has fallen to pieces.

    Thanks for confirming - hadn't seen it mentioned anywhere except owngoalnigeria (not too sure how reputable that site is)

    Another team to keep an eye on in the upcoming season.

    Right. It says that Agbo wouldn't get a Work Permit because he wasn't MVP or top scorer of a youth tournament. Isaac Success was.

    Penaranda was MVP wasn't he? What's the hold-up?

    Has he gone to the Special Liege or just the Standard one?

    Wobby say he's gone for 2.5m euros. A Liege fans said the club also confirmed this same fee.

    He's gone.

    I'm hope there will be a significant sell on fee, for that kind of money.

    Maybe a buy back? So we can bring him back once he's eligible for a work permit.

    Agree, seems a shame as I thought he was highly rated.

    If we have sold one of the most promising young defensive midfielders in Europe for £2.5m, that is a terrible business. I'm sure some fans will spin this as somehow being 'genius' nonetheless.

    It was a 50/50 call. And 50% of articles said it was a loan, the others said a transfer. A transfer just seemed daft. Nevermind.

    For a 50/50 call, you were pretty matter of fact about it definitely being a loan haha! But nevermind, as you say...;)

    It's only 12th July FFS. Calm down and wait for the Pozzos to surprise us with their Kiko Femenia trumping signing.

    In Pozzo we trust.

    It's difficult to rate that transfer without the full details.

    for example :
    We may have a £4m buy back option / first option/ 50% sell on fee etc etc

    It would be very unusual for the Pozzo not to structure a deal that would see them profit further on or even regain the player if needed.
    They do seem to be pretty good at it.

    Look at the Assombalonga deal (at the time I thought this was a poor move).
    It was a small fee initially, a massive percentage sell on fee and we even have a % of Peterborough sell on.
    the deal appears to be structured favorably towards a Watford return.

    On paper. This was a poor move. Unless we have some sort of deal wrapped up in the transfer.
