Watford have announced the signing of Alaves fullback Kiko Femenia.

The 26-year-old has agreed a four-year deal at Vicarage Road.

Femenía featured 77 times during two seasons at Estadio Mendizorrotza, including 31 appearances in the Spanish top-flight during 2016/17 and 38 league outings – plus five goals – as Alavés secured promotion as champions the year before.

Originally a right winger, Femenía made his professional debut as a 17-year-old with Hércules and has since also turned out for Barcelona and Real Madrid's B teams as well as Alcorcón.

He is also a former youth international for Spain at Under-20, Under-19 and Under-18 levels.
