Watford have reportedly ended their interest in Stevenage defender Ben Wilmot.

The 18-year-old has been left out of the squad for his side's last two League Two games as he was believed to have been holding talks with the Hornets.

According to The Sun, however, Watford have moved to pour cold water on speculation linking them to Wilmot.

"The club have moved on in its list of targets and priorities," a club source is quoted as saying. "A bid was turned down in the last window and there is no longer any interest."

The young centre-back, capped at Under-19 level for England, has played 15 games for Stevenage this season.
