Watford sign Bravo and Kjerrumgaard from Udinese

Watford have signed Spain Under-21 international forward Iker Bravo and former loan striker Luca Kjerrumgaard from Udinese for undisclosed fees.

Bravo, 21, was named player of the tournament as Spain won the 2024 Uefa Under-19 Championship and has signed a three-year deal at Vicarage Road.

Bravo came through Barcelona's La Masia academy before joining Bayer Leverkusen in 2021.

He also spent time on loan at Real Madrid B before joining Udinese in 2024, for whom he made 37 appearances and scored three goals.

Kjerrumgaard, 23, is a former Denmark youth international.

He has signed a four-year deal after scoring nine goals in 43 Championship appearances for the Hornets last season.

Kjerrumgaard did not make an appearance for Udinese after moving to the Italian club from Danish side Odense last summer.

"Iker is a promising young talent," said Watford group technical director Gian Luca Nani.

"His development at Real Madrid, Bayer Leverkusen and with the Spanish national teams speaks for itself.

"We are confident he will be a valuable addition to the squad and bring new attacking options to the team."
