The Post: Watford invited Hodgson out of the mountains, and the two sides have reached an agreement to sign a contract today

On January 25, The Daily Mail reporter Sami Mokbel reported that Watford had invited Hodgson out of the mountains after firing Ranieri.

Hodgson left Crystal Palace last summer to announce his retirement, and the 74-year-old looks poised to return to premier league post.

It is reported that Hodgson has reached an agreement with Watford, and only the paperwork is left to be signed, and the two sides will sign the contract on Tuesday local time. Watford staff and players have been told that Hodgson is about to take over the team.

After the first 20 league rounds, Watford have only 14 points, ranking second-to-last in the Premier League table.
