Isaac Success may be facing an uncertain future at Watford after Manager Marco Silva failed to give any assurances the Nigerian will return to the first team following allegations of a melee with four prostitutes and his subsequent arrest.
Success, 21, is currently out for two months with a knee injury, but Silva hinted the club may soon run out of patience with the ‘non-performing’ player.
‘The player and everyone else at the club know their obligations as professionals and they know the rules,’ Silva said when asked about Success.
‘People who love football don’t like this situation. Football is his life, he needs to be careful and know the right way.
‘Does he have a future here? I can’t talk now as the player is injured.
‘Maybe some of you won’t believe me, because he has not played one minute in the Premier League this season, but I’m really happy with his improvement.
‘Our obligation is to put the player in the right way, but you can’t do this every time. He is a young player and he knows.’
The player was arrested on September 11 following an incident at Sopwell House in Hertfordshire.
He was reportedly arrested after an angry bust-up with four prostitutes who he accused of cheating him out of £2,000.
Escort Alexis Domerge claims the player paid her and three other women £500 each to party with him at the luxury venue.
Success was later arrested in the hotel after police were called and an allegation of assault was made, according to The Sun.
Ms Domerge, 24, said Success angrily demanded his money back after he had downed two bottles of Baileys liqueur.
The Nigeria International, who cost the club £12.6million when he was signed from Granada last year, is said to fiercely deny the allegations.
