“WE HAVE TO LOOK AFTER OUR CLUB”
FOLLOWING Tamas Priskin's departure from Vicarage Road today (Friday), Watford boss Malky Mackay has spoken about the difficult decision in selling the striker.
The Hungarian has joined Roy Keane at Ipswich Town.
The striker had been offered a new deal on improved personal terms by the Hornets, but the 23-year-old turned down the proposal and has left the 'Orns for the fellow Championship club.
Mackay said: "I've known Tamas a few years now and have watched him grow as a player.
"We were in the unfortunate position of having a player with less than a year left on his contract.
"That being the case, from 1 September he could have run down his contract.
"There was no chance of us letting him go cheaply, but once Ipswich met our valuation it made sense to talk with them.
"As much as I'm disappointed, we have to look after the best interests of the club."
