Rocco Vata, a native of Scotland, was born on the 18th of April 2005 and has now reached the tender age of 19. He's trotting the football pitches as a forward for Watford, primarily weaving his magic as a right winger. The lad stands at 5ft 8in (1.75m) tall and tips the scales at 10st 5lb (66kg). You can spot him on the field donning the number 11 jersey.
As reported on Transfermarkt, Vata is currently valued in the market at around £300k. He remains under contract with Watford for another 3 years and 5 months, with his stint scheduled to draw to a close on the 30th of June 2028.
The tale of Vata's journey to football prominence begins in July 2012 when he joined Celtic in Scotland as a whippersnapper trainee in the Premiership. His nascent years at Celtic were marked by a palpable hunger for first team action. The lad made his debut in the 2022 - 2023 season with a modest four first team appearances in league matches. He then went on to participate in one first team game in the subsequent 2023 - 2024 season.
As if seeking a fresh wind in his career's sails, Vata hopped over from Scotland to England in July 2024, shifting his allegiance from Celtic to Watford. It was understood that the transition could have set Watford back by about £200k. In his current season with Watford (2024 - 2025), the driven youngster has made 21 first team appearances, leaving his mark on the score sheet thrice in league matches.
Vata's on-field exploits extend beyond the league matches. In Watford's 2024 - 2025 FA Cup campaign, the lad netted a goal in his sole start. He then graced the League Cup 2024 - 2025 with one start and two substitute appearances for Watford, further broadening his football profile. His journey continues to unfurl, painted in the unique colours of his talent and experience.
