In case you didn’t know…

Welbeck has been a free agent since June after having been released by Arsenal.

The England international missed more than half of the season with an injury after being stretchered off the field against Liverpool in November.

Welbeck joined Arsenal from Manchester United five years ago in 2014 in a sensational deadline day transfer deal. In the five seasons that have followed, Welbeck made 126 appearances and scored 32 times for the Gunners before the expiry of his contract.

The heart of the matter

England international Danny Welbeck has officially joined Watford FC on a free transfer. The 28-year-old is the third signing to arrive at Vicarage Road after Craig Dawson and Tom Dele-Bashiru joined the club earlier.

In his first press conference as a Watford player, Welbeck said,

He was also optimistic about staying fit for this season after having made just 8 appearances in the Premier League last season.

What’s next

Watford will start their Premier League campaign against Brighton at Vicarage Road on the 10th of August.
