Watford are reportedly considering the future of manager Javi Gracia after the club lost a sixth successive Premier League game at the weekend.

Watford are reportedly considering the future of manager Javi Gracia after the club lost a sixth successive Premier League game at the weekend.

The 3-1 defeat to West Ham United brought the Hornets' winless run in the league to seven games dating back to last season and eight games in all competitions if you include their defeat in the FA Cup final to Manchester City.

The loss to the Irons put Gracia's side bottom of the table and now the Daily Mail reports that the club's Italian owners are considering his position.

The 49-year-old Spaniard was appointed Watford boss in January 2018 and in his 19 months with the club he has overseen finishes of 14th and 11th in the Premier League as well as last season's run to the cup final.

The Hornets are in action twice before the international break, hosting Coventry City in the EFL Cup on Tuesday before travelling to Steve Bruce's Newcastle United on Saturday afternoon.
