Watford winger and Milan target Gerard Deulofeu has expressed his desire to play for a ‘top club’ one day.

Deulofeu was heavily linked with a return to Milan in January but the Rossoneri were unable to find an agreement with Watford.

Nonetheless, the 24-year-old admits he ‘cannot close the door’ to the possibility of a second spell at San Siro.

“Watford has a certain profile but for now it’s not a top club,” he told Reuters.

Nonetheless, the 24-year-old admits he ‘cannot close the door’ to the possibility of a second spell at San Siro.

“Watford has a certain profile but for now it’s not a top club,” he told Reuters.

“We’re eighth in the table, fighting to finish seventh and qualify for Europe, but I cannot close the door to other teams.

“I’m focussed on Watford but of course my objective is to play for a top team, that’s normal, just like any other professional.

“I was doing great at Milan, then I came back to Barca. I had my opportunities, perhaps not enough of them, then I went a month without playing.

“I’m a guy who likes to play a lot, I don’t like being on the bench or missing games so I came here to Watford so I could play as much as possible. I’m happy with my decision.”
