Ligue 1 outfit Reims are reported to be pursuing a loan move for Watford defender Dimitri Foulquier.

The 25-year-old has yet to feature for Watford since moving to Vicarage Road in August last year and spent last season on loan at Strasbourg.

He made 17 appearances for the club and chances at Watford look to be at a premium, leading Foulquier to seek pastures new.

The right-back is said to have been the subject of two separate approaches from Reims and their club website has confirmed their will continue to pursue a deal for Foulquier.

Watford have both Kiko Femenia and Daryl Janmaat as options at right-back while summer signing Marc Navarro, while traditionally a centre-back can play out wide.
