Former AZ Alkmaar winger Steven Berghuis is thrilled with his Premier League move to Watford.

The Dutchman completed his switch earlier today.

"I'm very excited to be here," Dutchman Berghuis told Hornets Player. "There were long discussions about whether I would come and I'm looking forward to playing here.

"I was happy at my old club but if you want to make steps in your career you have to take other steps and prove yourself again.

"This club wants to play football and I am a footballing player. I like it.

"(The Premier League) is the biggest competition with a lot of good teams. The teams are almost all good, instead of just two or three, and you have to prove yourself every week.

"Watford have a good vision and I know they want to stay in the Premier League."
