Premier League too good to miss for Watford’s Hughes

The chance to play Premier League football was impossible to say no to according to Watford’s new midfielder Will Hughes.

The England Under-21 international, who has been with Derby since he turned 16, signed a four-year deal with the Hornets on Friday.

Hughes is currently with the Under-21 squad at the European Championships with plenty expecting big things from the 22-year-old in the coming years.

And he admitted he cannot wait to get underway in England’s top flight under Watford’s new manager Marco Silva in the coming months.

“Every English player wants to play in the Premier League,” he said.

“Having played in the Championship for so long I gave it a good go to get promoted, but the chance to join a Premier League team was too hard to turn down.

“I’m massively excited, it’s a new chapter in my life and I can’t wait to get started.

“When it first came out that I was linked, I spoke to my agent and it’s been a slow process but I’m very relieved now.

“I’ve played against Watford many a time in the Championship and I’ve always enjoyed it. I’m looking forward to a new challenge now, especially in the Premier League.”
