Chelsea midfielder Nathaniel Chalobah is set to join Watford in search of regular playing time, according to the Mirror.

The report claims that the 22-year-old has decided to quit the Blues after holding talks with manager Antonio Conte.

The Italian manager supposedly failed to give any assurances to the midfielder regarding game time.

The England U21 international managed one start for the Blues last season, and he is expected to fell further down the pecking order as Conte is looking to bring another central midfielder to Stamford Bridge.

The Hornets will reportedly pay £5m, plus add-ons, for the youngster.
