Hayden Mullins says he would relish becoming Watford's permanent manager.

The Hornets' Under-23 coach took charge as caretaker boss for the first time during Wednesday's 2-0 defeat at Leicester City.

Asked if he would consider taking on the role permanently, Mullins said: "If they came to me and there was an offer like that, obviously I work for the football club and I'd love to step in and do the role if they needed it.

"Like I say, at the moment I work for the football club and doing the role they need me to do at this time."
