Crystal Palace winger Jobi McAnuff has sealed a £1.75m switch to Watford.

McAnuff signed a three-year contract with the Hornets after agreeing terms today.

Watford tried to sign the 25-year-old last year, but finally got their man after Derby decided not to persue their interest on Monday.

Hornets boss Aidy Boothroyd said: "I have been after him for a long time. He is two-footed, he can shoot, he can cross, he can make goals and he can score goals.

"I think he has still got a lot more to come but he is athletic, he fits the bill and he is hungry enough to want to play in the Premiership.

"He's got a little bit more experience, he is a match winner and he is a different type of player for us. He knows the division and he knows what's required to win."

McAnuff joined Palace from Cardiff for £600,000 in May 2005 and made 83 appearances, scoring 13 goals.
