"The 24-year-old left-back has signed a five-year contract at Vicarage Road and becomes the Hornets’ latest addition ahead of the 2018/19 Premier League campaign."

Masina leaves Bologna after making 131 total appearances, with 99 of those racked up in the Serie A. He was named Serie B Player of the Year at the end of the 2014/15 season, a campaign which saw the side return to Italy's top flight.

The pacy left-back, renown for his energetic displays on the flanks, has represented Italy at Under-21 level but has not been capped by I Azzurri as a senior.

Born in Morocco, Masina obtained a transfer from FIFA in 2015 which allows him to play for Italy.
