Chelsea defender Nathaniel Chalobah has joined Watford on loan until January 2013.

The 17-year-old captained Chelsea's FA Youth Cup-winning side last season, scoring in the first leg of the 4-1 aggregate win over Blackburn Rovers.

Born in Freetown, Sierra Leone, Chalobah has played for England at various youth levels, having made his debut for the Under 17 side as a 14-year-old.

He signed his first professional contract in January 2012, and although yet to play for the Chelsea first team he has been an unused substitute.
