Watford striker Stefano Okaka has joined Udinese on a permanent deal.

The 30-year-old spent the second half of last season on loan with the Serie A side, where he scored six goals in 16 appearances.

He managed to score just 5 goals in two-and-a-half seasons at Vicarage Road.

A return to Italy will see Okaka build on his experience with Parma, Bari, Brescia, Modena and Roma.
