Watford have secured a deal for Southampton U23 goalkeeper Adam Parkes.

The 19-year-old will now play for the Watford under-23s until the end of the season.

He already has England experience, having represented the under-17s.

Parkes was with Southampton since he was 10 years old.

But he has been enticed by the improved contract on offer at Watford, along with the hopes that he will get a first team opportunity in the coming years.
