Watford are in talks with Lyon over the signing of Maxwel Cornet, reports have suggested. 

Sky Sports have reported that the Hornets have made contact with the French side over a possible deal for the winger, while other reports suggest an offer has been made and that Cornet is understood to be happy with the move.

The Ivorian international has 19 goals from 104 appearances at Lyon, but has recently found game time limited.

He notably scored three times in two games against Manchester City in the Champions League this season.
