The Hornets' midfielder has been one of the consistent performers for Watford in recent years. Doucoure is an engine in the midfield and has successfully played every single minute of Premier League this season. His versatility in the center of the pitch has been vital for Watford and the midfielder is already in the radar of several top clubs in Europe.

The Frenchman has scored two goals and has assisted 5 in the Premier League so far. He is one of the few players to complete 1000-plus passes and has largely been pivotal to connect the defense with forwards up front. His defensive accomplishments include 43 tackles and 139 recoveries in his 18 appearances.

Everton, PSG and Arsenal are said to be the clubs who are in the hunt to sign Doucore in the upcoming window. Everton have an upper hand in the business due to the fact that Marco Silva is an ex-manager of Doucore who could persuade him to sign for the Toffees.

However, if Arsenal and PSG decide to splash out millions, the Watford midfielder could top the transfer headlines and move to one of those elite clubs of Europe.
