Sanchez Flores says “we don’t have the same point of view about the season”.

The 51-year-old has a break clause in his contract which either the club or the manager can activate this summer.

“Leeds United owner Massimo Cellino is set to dispense with the services of current manager Steve Evans, whose contract expires at the end of June, and is hoping to tempt Flores into taking over at Elland Road”.

“However, we have two two very important games to play”.

“I felt completely happy with this year”, Sanchez Flores said, “and I have enjoyed this experience”.

“It will be really, really emotional – really special in the last moment, on the last day with the Watford fans”.

Past Honest to Real Madrid and Valencia player Sanchez will leave after Sunderland visit Vicarage Road on Sunday.

“I understand football completely because I’ve been a professional in football for 32 years. A lot of good memories from this season”.

Watford, from just north of London, started the season well but have struggled recently and have lost three of their last four matches, including a 4-2 defeat at Norwich City on Wednesday.

Watford started the season in great form winning eight of their opening 17 Premier League matches, and they moved within one point of the Champions League qualification places.

“Everything is possible. I’m open to everything after my contract has finished”, Sanchez Flores said.
