The Colombian is having a great season at Watford and his level has made several first division clubs in England follow him.

Yaser Asprilla is experiencing his best season since his debut with Envigado. In 20 games played with Watford in 23/24 he has 4 goals and 2 assists with just 990 minutes on the pitch. While he was in the FPC, his best record was 5 scores in 1,426 ', which confirms that he is much more productive today. At just 20 years old, the winger is the jewel that Watford has and with which he is excited for a great sale in the future, although in the winter market he could surprise with a possible transfer.

From England they claim that there have been several occasions in which scouts from some Premier clubs have gone to Watford matches to see Yaser Asprilla and propose him as a winter signing for their teams. The Colombian has evolved in his game and has understood that what coach Valérien Ismaël is looking for is to enhance him so that he can have more minutes.


Rumors also emerged at the beginning of the season regarding a possible departure from Watford. The Colombian has a contract until mid-2026 and at that time the team coach ruled out any possibility of departure. However, after seeing the consistency that he has begun to have, several clubs have shown interest in hiring him, although there is still no formal offer.


Asprilla's last goal with Watford was against Ipswich Town on matchday 21 of England's second division. The coach valued the attitude of the forward and his teammates to create the situation that caused the score.

The sensations of the moment


It was a good goal in a good pressure situation. We knew that at some point they would make mistakes; We forced many mistakes but finished only one. There were good situations in transition, but the last pass did not arrive, Ismaël said.
