Middlesbrough, apparently wanting to simply get in on the transfer movement on deadline day, announced Tuesday the signing of Adlene Guedioura from Watford.
Terms of the deal were not disclosed.
The Algerian international, 31, has inked a two-and-a-half-year deal with Aitor Karanka's side, and leaves the Hornets having racked up 54 appearances and four goals.
