Walter Mazzarri may have managed Inter and Napoli in European football but he admits survival is his first aim at Watford.
New Watford manager Walter Mazzarri says avoiding relegation is the primary target ahead of his first season in English football.
The 54-year-old, who led Napoli to their first major trophy in more than two decades by winning the 2011-12 Coppa Italia, replaced Quique Sanchez Flores in the Vicarage Road hotseat this summer and will be aiming to build on the club's impressive first season back in the top flight.
However, the former Sampdoria and Inter coach, Watford's seventh manager in just five seasons, admits that securing survival will be the main aim for his first managerial appointment outside of his native Italy.
