Having played a vital role in Watford's promotion to the Premier League, forward Matej Vydra will reportedly be joining the club on a permanent basis.

Vydra spent last season at Vicarage Road on a season-long loan from Udinese Calcio, notching 16 goals and five assists while appearing in all 42 of Watford's Championship fixtures.

He also scored in Watford's 2-0 win over Brighton & Hove Albion, a result that - coupled with two other scorelines - secured his side's return to the Premier League.
