Watford sign Domingos Quina

Watford have completed the signing of West Ham youngster Domingos Quina, according to reports from London this evening. Watford had been pursuing Quina for over half of a year and have sealed a £2.5 million deal to bring the player to Vicarage Road and have beaten Burnley to the player's signature.

The Hornets have submitted their papers to the Premier League to initiate the transfer in time for the start of the Premier League season and it is understood that negotiations were completed at the very close of the transfer deadline day window. Quina will be confident of securing first-team football under Javi Gracia, his new coach at Watford.

The player, who arrived from Chelsea in 2016, has yet to have appeared for the Hammers' first-team but has been a regular for Portugal's youth sides, where he has featured for the under-20's as well as the under-19s, for whom he has played 19 times. The Guinea-Bissau man is expected to be a fringe player for the Hornets this coming season.
