The paperwork has taken Adrian Lippegaus from 1. FC Köln II U23 to Watford, with £2.6m changing hands. The German, 18, joins Watford U18 after three seasons with Köln’s reserve side.
Lippegaus scored 30 goals in 62 games for 1. FC Köln II U23. Across his club career he has 31 goals in 68 games. Watford have also just sold David Waller to Leicester City for £2.5m; this time, their spending is directed towards a German prospect.
