Watford are in talks over the signing of Shamar Nicholson from Spartak Moscow.The 26-year-old striker is available for transfer from the Russian club. Negotiations have not yet led to an agreement, including whether a move would be a loan or permanent switch.The Jamaican international joined Spartak from Charleroi in 2021 and has a contract until 2026. Nicholson, who is 6’4”, has scored 12 goals in 39 appearances for Spartak Moscow.The Athletic revealed that Nicholson was on Watford’s radar last weekend, following the 0-0 draw with Plymouth. The Championship club held an interest in Sory Kaba, who was on loan at Cardiff from FC Midtjylland last season, but he joined Las Palmas earlier this week.
Marco Silva wants to rejuvenate Raul Jimenez’s career in the same way that he improved new Fulham team-mates Aleksandar Mitrovic, Tim Ream and Willian.
Striker Jimenez joined Fulham last month from Wolverhampton Wanderers for a fee in the region of £5m, and he is looking to rediscover his best form at his new club. The Mexico international suffered a serious head injury in November 2020, following a season where he scored 17 league goals, but in the two full seasons since his return to full fitness in 2021, he has only scored six times.
“We are here to help him like we have been helping our players these last two seasons,” he said on Friday. “What we did with them, I think we can do the same with Raul. Our idea is to do the same. He has very good skills to help us, and to provide different things for us than the other strikers.”
