Trusty is also not alone in being the subject of reports regarding interest. Fellow defender Anel Ahmedhodžić has been reported as a target for Premier League clubs, with
Maloney is in the frame to land the role. He is currently in charge of Wigan Athletic, having returned to the club he once represented as a player in January
He had previously led Hibernian, having cut his teeth coaching within Celtic’s academy and assisting in his role as manager of the Belgium national team.
Although it remains to be seen whether Watford will indeed swoop for Maloney, it would not be surprising to see the 41-year-old step up to the Championship in the near future.
He has admirably steadied the ship at Wigan, blooding young players such as highly-rated goalkeeper Sam Tickle in the process. The Latics currently sit 11th in the League One table, 13 points adrift of the play-offs but comfortably clear of the relegation zone
