Brentford have announced the signing of goalkeeper Vincent Angelini from Watford for their B-team.

The youngster has signed an 18-month deal to play for Neil MacFarlane's side.

The 19-year-old could stay for an additional year if Brentford activate a club option.

Per the club website, Brentford B head coach Neil MacFarlane said: “Vincent played for us in our London Senior Cup tie, and we felt he did well on that particular occasion.

“He's come in and impressed us in training and he has some good experiences behind him having been on the bench for Watford's first team and we know he's a good goalkeeper who will suit our style of play.

“He's very good with his feet, we feel that we can improve him in other aspects, and we look forward to watching him grow alongside the rest of the players.

“Competition for places is exactly what we want, and we've seen that in the last couple of months with the level of performances within our B team really high at the moment. When we add to the group, we want players to push others and Vincent is certainly one of them."
