Watford Provide Positive Update On Etebo

Watford have provided a positive update on Oghenekaro Etebo ahead of Saturday’s Premier League home clash against Brighton & Hove Albion.

Etebo has been sidelined since picking up a quad injury in Watford’s home draw against Newcastle United in September 2021.

The midfielder later underwent surgery and recently returned to team training at the club’s London Colney ground.

“Midfielder Peter Etebo continues to edge towards a return to match action following a quad injury sustained against Newcastle United in September,” reads a statement on the club’s official website.

“The 26-year-old is meeting with his surgeon in Finland later today (February 10), and hopes to return to England tonight and resume training with the team tomorrow.”

Etebo, on loan from Championship side Stoke City made six league appearances for the Hornets before the setback.
