According to a report by OwnGoal Nigeria, despite Granada sanctioning a move to English Premiership side Watford, a bid from Athletico Madrid has change the dynamics regarding his move.

“Valencia were the first to be turned down by Granada as they want him to go to Watford, a team owned by the owners of Granada, it appears so until Atletico Madrid came into the picture,” a source close to the player told owngoalnigeria.com

Success is said to prefer a move to Athletico Madrid because he wants to play in the UEFA Champions League and the Vicente Calderon based side are willing to pay him more in wages than Watford.

So far he has scored six times in the Spanish League from the 30 games he has played this season.
