DeMerit Leaving US?
Last updated : 05 February 2007 By Gary Holmes
Watford defender, Jay DeMerit has revealed he will be open to offers should the club be relegated back to the Coca-Cola Championship at the end of the season.
The 27-year-old Wisconsin born player has been a mainstay of the Golden Boys defence this season, and a revelation since arriving at the club from non-league Northwood in 2004.
However, the ambitious DeMerit feels he can remain in the top flight and admitted,
“I hope we can stay up but it's out of my hands. If there are Premiership teams that would be interested of course I'd talk to them.”
DeMerit, who scored in the Millennium Play-off final last May, has made 26 appearances for Watford this season, netting twice, including the winner against Blackburn Rovers eleven days ago.
