Leicester City have signed Watford full-back James Chambers on a free transfer, after he rejected the offer of a new contract at Vicarage Road.
The 26-year-old, who can also play in midfield, has been handed a three-year deal by Foxes boss Martin Allen.
Chambers joined Watford from West Brom for £250,000 in 2004, making 90 league appearances in three seasons.
"Other clubs were involved, so it is good that we have been able to get the deal done," Allen told City's website.
"James is a player who we have been after for a little while - he can play right-back, left-back or in the centre of midfield."
