Watford's Ashley Fletcher has joined Major League Soccer side New York Red Bulls on loan until the end of July.

The Hornets signed the 26-year-old striker last summer after his contract with Middlesbrough expired.

Fletcher has made six appearances for Watford in all competitions this season, but has not started a Premier League game.

The former West Ham forward scored two goals for Watford in Carabao Cup games against Crystal Palace and Stoke.
