Javi Gracia has moved quickly to bring his chosen backroom staff to Watford, appointing three new coaches on his first day in charge.

It is anticipated Marco Silva's backroom entourage, that joined him at the club in the summer, will be departing - although this has not yet been finalised.

Jesus Casas has joined Watford from Cadiz, where he took charge of the youth team, and previously worked under Luis Enrique at Barcelona earlier in his coaching career.

Juan Solla, who was Gracia's assistant coach at Osasuna and Malaga has also joined.

In addition, Gracia has also appointed goalkeeping coach Iñigo Arteaga, who worked with him during his last job at Rubin Kazan.
