Watford are set to appoint Vladimir Ivic as their new head coach.

The relegated club are hoping to bounce straight back to the Premier League from the Championship in the coming season.

And the Daily Mail says Watford have settled on former Maccabi Tel Aviv boss Ivic as the man to bring them back up.

The Hornets went through four managers last season during a tumultuous campaign.

Ivic has held talks with Watford's owners in Italy and impressed enough to be offered the job.

He previously managed PAOK in Greece, winning the Greek Cup in 2017.
