Sheffield Wednesday have completed the signings of Watford duo Almen Abdi and Daniel Pudil.
The pair will strengthen a Wednesday side who were beaten in the Championship play-off final by Hull last term and will be looking to make it to the top flight this season.
The Owls play their final pre-season game against Port Vale this Sunday, before kicking off their Championship campaign against Aston Villa the following weekend.

Defender Pudil is a familiar figure to Owls fans, having spent last season on loan at Wednesday, making 42 appearances.
The 30-year-old scored twice during that campaign and then went on to represent the Czech Republic at Euro 2016.
Swiss international Abdi, a 29-year-old attacking midfielder, has been a key figure at Watford since signing from Udinese, initially on loan, in 2012.
He played a key role as the Hornets secured promotion to the Premier League in 2014/15 and remained a first-team regular last season as they finished a creditable 13th.
