The 19-year-old spent the first half of this campaign on loan with Ipswich and will now go back to the Championship to aid the Hornets' promotion bid.

He briefly returned to White Hart Lane at the start of January and marked an impressive Spurs debut with a goal in the FA Cup victory over Charlton.

Townsend has made it clear that he sees his long-term future at Tottenham and is regarded as an exciting prospect by manager Harry Redknapp.

He will be determined to catch the eye for Watford over the next few months and goes straight into the squad to face Cardiff in the Championship this weekend.

Spurs have installed a 24-hour recall clause into the deal.
