Watford striker Tobi Adeyemo has joined Crawley Town on loan until the end of the season.
The 20-year-old heads south for his first EFL loan having regained fitness after a difficult few years with the Hornets.
Adeyemo burst onto the scene at first-team level when he became the club's third-youngest ever goalscorer by netting on his league debut against Blackpool in January 2023.

He signed his first professional contract the following April, a three-year deal that is due to run until the end of this season.
Adeyemo has suffered a series of injuries ever since, though, around a temporary spell at Wealdstone in 2024.
He worked his way back to full fitness in the summer before yet another setback.

After returning to Watford Under-21 duty in October, head coach Charlie Daniels said: "I'm really pleased for Tobi. He came into pre-season flying and looked fully fit.
"He was focused, on top of his game and unfortunately then got a bad injury, which set him back.
"But to see how hard he worked in the gym, on the pitch and back doing what he does best, scoring goals, is really pleasing."
He now has the chance to prove himself at League Two level with the Red Devils, who sit 21st in the league table.
