EXCLUSIVE: Crystal Palace, Sunderland and Cardiff battling for £1.5m Watford ace Anya.

The trio are preparing £1.5m bids for the flying Watford winger.

Scottish international Anya, 26, has two years left on his contract at Vicarage Road.

But the Hornets are facing a huge battle to keep hold of him with competition for his signature hotting up.

Anya has become one of Watford’s main men since joining, initially on loan, in 2012.

He has also forced his way into the Scotland setup, earning six caps.

He would have to move....that's a big commute everyday. 2 hrs each way on a good day.

Good point about the local move to Palace and obviously PL is a draw, BUT....

We can compete on wages (or signing on fees), so finances shouldn't be a problem and of course, he will get game time at Cardiff, together with the prospect of earning PL by fighting a successful campaign.

I wouldn't right it off to quickly. Fingers crossed. :thumbup:
