EPL: Watford Signs Samuel Kalu

Watford’s bid to avoid relegation this season has continued with another new signing at Vicarage Road: this time in the shape of Samuel Kalu.

Kalu, who joins from Bordeaux, has penned a contract with the Hornets until June 2025

The 24-year-old is the club’s fourth signing of the January transfer window following the arrivals of full back Hassane Kamara, defender Samir and midfielder Edo Kayembe under former manager Claudio Ranieri.

For Kalu and Hodgson they’ll use the international break to familiarise themselves in their new surroundings as Watford look to avoid the drop.

Kalu, who has won 17 caps for Nigeria, can play on either wing – although he prefers the right – and will bolster Watford’s attacking options.
