Instead, Etebo will return to his parent club Stoke City when pre-season begins in a few weeks.

"Following the conclusion of the 2021-22 Premier League season, Watford can confirm that five first-team players have left the club," read a Watford statement.

"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."
