There had already been reports over the last few days of strong interest from Watford, who are newly promoted to the Premier League.
According to Sky Sport Italia, the two clubs have shaken hands on the transfer for a fee of around €9.7m.
They will now discuss the details of the contract with the player, who scored four goals and provided six assists in Serie A this season.
It’s reported he will have his wages doubled to €1.4m per season, but is still unconvinced by the idea of moving to England.
Sky suggest he would prefer to join a Spanish side like Valencia or remain at Genoa.
Watford are owned by the Pozzo family, who also run Udinese in Italy and Spanish side Granada.
