• Hughton out of work since being sacked by Brighton
Watford have sacked Quique Sánchez Flores and could appoint Chris Hughton in what will be the club’s second managerial change of the season already.
Flores’s job was hanging by a thread after Watford’s 2-1 defeat to Southampton with patience at boardroom level having snapped with the Spaniard, who had failed to reverse the side’s slump since returning to Vicarage Road in September. The 54-year-old won only one of his 10 league games since replacing Javi Gracia, who was sacked after a poor start to the season. Watford are bottom of the Premier League and six points from safety.
