Watford have an interest in Real Madrid's Denis Cheryshev but no further developments are expected regarding the player before the transfer window closes at 11pm.

The Russian international has been linked with a move to Vicarage Road in the past 24 hours and while the Hornets like the player, it is not anticipated this will result in any deal taking place.

The 25-year-old, who is under contract until 2017, is on the fringes at the Bernabeu and has yet to make a start in La Liga but has made four appearances in the Champions League, three as a substitute.

Cheryshev has spent the majority of the past two seasons on loan at Sevilla and Villarreal and has also been linked with a move to Liverpool.

It is reported the winger is now set to make another loan move to Valencia.
