Derby County have completed the permanent signing of Watford winger Ikechi Anya.

The 28-year-old has agreed a four-year deal with the Championship club for a fee believed to be in the region of £4m.

Anya helped the Hornets win promotion to the Premier League in the 2014-15 campaign and made 33 appearances last season.

The Scotland international, who can also play wing-back, joins former Watford striker Matej Vydra at Derby.

Manager Nigel Pearson told the Derby website: “We’re delighted to get Ikechi Anya here.

“I have met with him this evening and he is certainly a very enthusiastic individual. 

“He gives us more balance to the squad and we have someone that is versatile in wide areas. He can play out wide, at full-back or as a wing-back.

“I’m really pleased with the potential that he brings to us.”
