Watford commission statue in honour of Graham Taylor

Watford are commissioning a statue in honour of Graham Taylor.

The Hornets' former manager died on January 12, aged 72.

The Sun says Taylor managed the club in two spells, first taking them from the then Division Four into the top flight and later gaining promotion to the Premier League from the Championship.

He also managed England from 1990 until 1993.

Taylor's funeral was attended by hundreds of football celebrities and fans, who lined the streets.
