Watford grab their fourth signing of the summer with season-long loan deal for versatile Napoli star Juan Camilo Zuniga
WATFORD have completed a surprise loan deal for Napoli ace Juan Camilo Zuniga.
The Colombia international is a versatile full-back capable of playing on either side, and looks set to slot straight into Walter Mazzarri’s expected 3-5-2 formation next season.
The duo worked together for four years in southern Italy, and a permanent switch is on the cards if Zuniga can prove himself in the Premier League.
The 30-year-old made 125 appearances for Napoli before spending the last season on loan at Bologna and becomes the Hornets’ fourth signing of the summer.
Centre-back Christian Kabasele joined from Genk for £6million, with Jerome Sinclair also arriving at Vicarage Road in a £4m switch from Liverpool.
But it’s club-record signing Isaac Success who has the fans talking after he completed a £12.5m move from Granada.
The 20-year-old Nigerian scored six goals in 33 games last season and looks set to lead the line alongside Odion Ighalo and Troy Deeney.
Ighalo looks set to stay with the English club despite being the subject of an incredible £38m bid from Chinese Super League outfit Shanghai SIPG.
Meanwhile, Deeney has quashed speculation linking him with a move to champions Leicester after penning a new five-year deal.
