Watford will sign a number of players with Premier League experience this summer, according to Troy Deeney.

Troy Deeney believes that Watford will add "four or five" players to their squad before the start of next season.

The Hornets will be playing Premier League football for the first time in eight years next term thanks to their second-placed finish in the Championship.

However, despite that success, Deeney has admitted that owner Gino Pozzo is eager to recruit a number of players with previous experience of performing in the top flight.

"Speaking to the owner I feel they will be bringing in some lads with Premier League experience. It is not going to be a case like Burnley's, where they have said 'we are going to stick with you lot [who secured promotion]'," the striker told talkSPORT.

"Sentiment won't be held by our owner. He is very much 'you are in the Prem now so get the job done'.

"I think there will probably be four or five lads coming in with Premier League experience and then there are people like myself who are absolutely buzzing to be there [for the first time]."

During their last stint in the Premier League in 2006-07, Watford finished bottom with 28 points to their name.
