Watford bring in Goglichidze from Udinese

Watford have signed defender Saba Goglichidze on loan from 'sister club' Udinese for the rest of the season.

The 21-year-old joins fellow Georgia international Giorgi Chakvetadze at Vicarage Road and can play at centre-back or on the right of the defence.

He began his career with Torpedo Kutaisi and was in their squad when they won the Georgian Cup in 2022.

Goglichidze then moved to Italy to join Empoli but left for Udinese 18 months later and has played eight Serie A games this season.

Watford are currently without a head coach following Javi Gracia's departure on Sunday, with the team 10th in the Championship.
