Relegated English Championship side Watford FC has confirmed the release of Nigeria's Super Eagles midfielder Oghenekaro Etebo, BSNsports.com.ng gathered
Former Warri Wolves player joined the Hornets last summer on loan from the Championship side Stoke City after a brief stint in the Spanish La Liga.
His stay at the Vicarage road was affected after suffering an injury in the early part of the season which ruled him out for most of the season.
The club confirmed the release of Etebo alongside other players and he was confirmed to rejoin his parent club.
“Following the conclusion of the 2021/22 Premier League season, Watford FC can confirm that five first-team players have left the club.
“Goalkeeper Ben Foster has been released at the end of his contract, bringing the curtain down on a storied Hornets career which saw the 39-year-old feature for the club over 200 times during two seasons on loan between 2005 and 2007 and after re-signing permanently from West Bromwich Albion in 2018.
Defender Nicolas Nkoulou – who made three league appearances after signing in October 2021 – and forward Andre Gray – who spent the last campaign on loan at Queens Park Rangers – have also departed upon the expiration of their deals.
“Juraj Kucka has chosen to activate a release clause in his contract, bringing an end to his one-season stay in Hertfordshire, while fellow midfielder Peter Etebo has returned to parent club Stoke City following his loan spell at Vicarage Road," the club said.
Etebo made 10 appearances for the club this season.
