Lloyd Dyer has completed his switch from Leicester City to Watford.
The 31-year-old winger has signed a three-year contract with the Hornets after rejecting a one-year offer from City.
Dyer made more than 250 appearances for City over six seasons and was a member of the League One and Championship title winning sides.
Dyer, who rarely gave interviews, told the Mercury during last season that his desire was to end his career with City.
"I feel like this is my club," said Dyer, who spoke of his pride at being handed the captain's armband for the Capital One Cup tie at Carlisle United.
"I have been here six years and have enjoyed every second of it. They have been the best years of my career. I feel at home here.
"I have always given everything I have to the Leicester City cause and want to continue to do so.
"I want to finish my career here. I am in the last year of my current contract and would love to sign another and for it to be the last one of my career."
Dyer had arguably just enjoyed his best season for City, making 30 starts in the league, scoring seven times. He also scored three times in the Capital One Cup.
However Dyer, who has a young family, has opted for the longer-term security of Watford's offer despite City's promotion to the Premier League and the prospect of completing the journey from League One to the Premier League.
