Gracia would speak to Okaka about his Watford future should offers arrive

Okaka has featured just twice in all competitions this season.

Javi Gracia would speak to Stefano Okaka about his Watford future should the Hornets field any January offers for the Italy striker.

Okaka has featured just twice in all competitions this season, with Isaac Success and Troy Deeney bossing Watford's forward line.

And Hornets manager Gracia has admitted he would talk through any offers with the 29-year-old.

"I would like to speak with Stefano or with any of the players about transfers when that moment arrives," said Gracia.

"But in this moment he's one player for us, and he's only focused on trying to help the team in this moment.

"We have time to speak about different situations in the future."

Watford will bid to get back to winning ways in Monday night's Premier League trip to Everton, following a run of just two victories in 11 league encounters.

Gracia insists his side are dominating opponents but lacking a killer instinct, and has challenged his players to sharpen up in front of goal.

"I am still demanding, and know we have a lot of things to improve," said Gracia.

"But if you ask me about the level of the team or the way we are playing, I can tell you, I really think maybe we deserved more in some games we have played.

"But the only way to change this situation is working hard and trying to improve the things we can do.

"It's clear in the last games in some of them, we have dominated possession, chances, set-pieces.

"We've controlled the game, but we didn't finish, we didn't take the chances we had.

"We need to be more efficient and try to keep the same attitude in our defensive work, and all the different facets of play."
