Watford defender Juan Carlos Paredes could reportedly be the target of a potential swap deal with Trabzonspor striker Dame N’Doye.

Reports claim the Turkish club are interested in signing the Hornets full-back and may be willing to offer N'Doye in exchange.

Senegalese forward N'Doye joined Sunderland on loan last season but only scored once in 11 appearances. He also started the 2-2 draw at Vicarage Road on the final day of the season.

Paredes played 20 times for Watford during the last campaign and finished the season by helping Ecuador reach the Copa America quarter-finals where they were beaten 2-1 by the United States.

New Watford head coach Walter Mazzarri will get his chance to assess the squad at the start of next month and it is unclear whether he sees Paredes as part of his first-team plans.
