Watford and Peterborough keen on Shots defender

Sky Sports understands Watford and Peterborough are chasing Aldershot defender Anthony Straker. Straker has established himself as one of the best players in the lower leagues with a number of impressive performances. The Grenada international has made over 150 appearances for Aldershot and has established himself as one of the leading full-backs in League Two. Scouts have been flocking to the The EEB Stadium to cast an eye over Straker and the full-back could only have impressed with both goals in Saturday's win over AFC Wimbledon. The 23-year-old is in the final six months of his contract and has yet to agree an extension, alerting Watford and Peterborough. Aldershot would be loathe to lose Straker, but they would find it hard to resist a big-money offer for the player if any of his suitors firm up their interest before the close of the transfer window.
