Experienced England international Danny Rose has agreed a move to Vicarage Road, the Hornets are delighted to confirm.
The 30-year-old left-back, who recently left Tottenham Hotspur after 14 years in North London, will join as a free agent on July 1, signing a two-year deal.
A product of Leeds United’s youth setup, Rose moved to White Hart Lane in 2007 but made his professional debut for the Hornets nearly two years later, appearing seven times during a loan spell in Hertfordshire towards the end of 2008/09.
The Yorkshireman truly announced himself with a stunning volleyed goal on his first league outing for Tottenham, against fierce rivals Arsenal in April 2010, and he would go on to perform 214 times during a prolonged and successful stay with Spurs.
He was named in the PFA Premier League Team of the Year in both 2015/16 and 2016/17, and played in the 2015 League Cup final as well as the 2019 Champions League final.
Rose has 29 England caps to his name, including five outings as the Three Lions reached the World Cup semi-finals in 2018, and he also represented Team GB at the 2012 Olympics.
His most recent action came during a loan at Newcastle United in 2020, where he featured 13 times.
Welcome back to Watford, Danny!
