England Under-21 international seals permanent transfer from Chelsea, five years after loan with Hornets

Nathaniel Chalobah has completed a permanent transfer to Watford from Chelsea on a five-year contract. 

The midfielder enjoyed a successful loan spell at Vicarage Road in the 2012/13 campaign, scoring five goals in 42 Championship matches. 

Chalobah, 22, was part of the England squad that reached the semi-finals of the UEFA Under-21 European Championships last month.

Chalobah has made 14 career Premier League appearances. He could make his Watford PL debut at home to Liverpool.
