Nigeria international and Watford midfielder Oghenekaro Etebo has had a successful surgery and is set to begin rehabilitation.
The 25-year-old had the surgery for a torn quad muscle and won’t be back in action until January or February next year.
Etebo tore a quad muscle in Watford’s 1-1 draw against Newcastle in the English Premier League two weeks ago.
In a post on Instagram on Wednesday, the Nigerian thanked his fans for their support and said he’ll be back soon.

He will miss the Africa Cup of Nations in Cameroon, which begins on 9 January.
