• New owner says Gianfranco Zola will replace Sean Dyche
• Zola? We have a verbal agreement, says Pozzo
Gianfranco Zola will become the manager of Watford, according to the club's new owner, Giampaolo Pozzo.
Pozzo, owner of the Serie A side Udinese and Granada in La Liga, completed the takeover of the Championship club from Laurence Bassini last week. "The Watford deal was conducted by my son [Gino], who works a lot in London," Pozzo told Sky Italia.
"We are trying to revive a historic club and to bring it back to the Premier League. Zola? We are on the right path and hence, I believe he will be our new coach. We have a verbal agreement.
"The English coaches are different to that of the Italians in terms of managing. Before deciding on the coach we needed time. My son will be in London as well tomorrow and there should be no problem."
