5 Championship players who could be set for Premier League transfers before October 16th deadline

Troy Deeney

One of the biggest characters in the Premier League over recent seasons has been Watford’s Troy Deeney. Now 32, the striker may not be quite as dynamic as he once was but his leadership skills could certainly be a useful asset to a club in the top-flight. According to the Sunday Mirror, (11/10, p73), it’s reported that Southampton are interested in signing the Hornets star. However, it’s claimed that the Saints are not the only club considering the centre-forward with both West Brom and Brighton also thought to be weighing up a swoop.
