Brazilian forward Kenedy joins Watford on season-long loan from Chelsea

Watford have completed the signing of Kenedy from Chelsea on a season-long loan.

Kenedy, 20, joined Chelsea last summer Fluminense in a deal worth a reported £6.3 million and made 14 Premier League appearances last season, scoring in a 2-1 win at Norwich City in March.

But he has not been in Antonio Conte's matchday squad so far this season for any of the club's four fixtures, including the EFL Cup win over Bristol Rovers.

Chelsea were also in talks with Dutch club PSV Eindhoven but the Hornets have completed the deal ahead of Wednesday's transfer deadline.
