Heurelho Gomes signs new two-year deal at Vicarage Road
The 35-year-old shot-stopper was named the Hornets' Player of the Season in 2015/2016 and also collected the award voted by his team-mates.
The Brazilian has made 83 appearances since moving to Vicarage Road from Tottenham in May 2014, having also enjoyed a successful spell in Holland with PSV Eindhoven.
A statement on Watford's official website read: "Goalkeeper Heurelho Gomes has agreed terms on an improved contract offer from the Hornets.
"The Brazilian, whose deal runs until 2018, has been rewarded for his fine performances in the Watford goal over the past two years."
Watford have been busy reshaping the squad for life after Quique Sanchez Flores, who kept the club up in his first season and also reached the semi-finals of the FA Cup.
