Giuseppe Sannino 'on verge' of becoming Watford manager

Former Chievo manager Giuseppe Sannino claims that he is flying to England to discuss taking over at Watford.

Giuseppe Sannino is said to be on the verge of becoming Watford's new head coach.

The 56-year-old, who left his post with Serie A side Chievo last month, has claimed that he is to fly to England to discuss taking over at Vicarage Road just a day after Gianfranco Zola resigned as Hornets boss.

Sannino told Radio Sportiva: "Me to Watford? I don't want to say too much, but there has been some contact and soon I will fly to England to analyse things and to understand if something can be born.

"I always want to be working in the field and I always want new challenges."

This morning SkyBet suspended betting on Sannino after he was backed into odds of 1/8.

If Sannino does take over, then his first match in charge will be a trip to Ipswich Town on Saturday.
