Watford 'reject Manchester United loan offer for Ismaila Sarr with £25m buy option' as Ole Gunnar Solskjaer searches for deadline day deal

Watford have reportedly rejected a deadline day offer from Manchester United for Senegal striker Ismaila Sarr.

United have been linked with the 22-year-old all summer as a potential alternative to their top target, and now at the eleventh hour a move has been made.

Championship side Watford have already rebuffed the approach of a loan deal with an option for a permanent transfer, as report the Manchester Evening News.

United are said to have proposed a £25million fee to make the deal permanent at the end of the current season.
