Watford are understood to have valued the 25-year-old, who was the club’s top scorer last season, at £45 million, a fee which has moved to ward off interest from the Premier League’s top sides.
Doucoure’s superb 2017/18 season had led many to believe he would depart Vicarage Road this summer, and the player himself claimed Arsenal, Tottenham Hotspur and Liverpool were all keeping tabs on him.
No offer has materialised from any of those clubs and they are wary of paying over the odds, regardless off Doucoure’s sustained form with the Hornets.
Both Liverpool and Arsenal have signed central midfield players this summer leaving Spurs as the most likely to make a late approach for the Watford number 16.
