Watford have strengthened their defensive options with the signing of right-back Omar Traore from Udinese, according to BBC News. The fee involved has not been disclosed.
The move sees Traore switch between two clubs under the same ownership umbrella, with Udinese acting as Watford's sister club — a link that has facilitated several transfers between the pair in recent years.
Details on Traore's age, nationality, and contract length were not specified in the report, but his arrival adds fresh competition at right-back as Watford continue to build their squad.
The Hornets have often turned to their Udinese connection to source new talent, and this latest addition suggests the pathway between the two clubs remains active heading into the new season. No further specifics on personal terms or the length of Traore's deal at Vicarage Road were provided by BBC News.
