Jurado was brought to Vicarage Road by Flores last summer, reuniting the pair again after the manager coached him at the Real Madrid youth setup before a four-year spell at Atletico Madrid. Flores was dismissed by Watford at the end of last season, but then ensured Jurado followed him to his latest role at Espanyol.

The 30-year-old made 30 appearances for Watford over the 2015-16 campaign, and follows Jose Antonio Reyes and goalkeeper Roberto as the third signing at the Estadi Cornella-El Prat this summer.
