Watford receive boost on the injury front as Tom Cleverley shares update
Watford boss Tom Cleverley has said defender Jeremy Ngakia is back with the squad.
Watford have been without the full-back over recent times due to injury.
Ngakia, 24, has made good progress on his road to recovery.
In this latest update regarding his condition, Cleverley has said, as per a report by the Watford Observer: “Ngakia has returned well and in a very good condition, and he gives us an option on either side. You’ve seen England playing Trippier on the opposite side during the Euros. Our wing-backs are doing fantastic in an attacking sense, but I’ve openly demanded more from them in the defensive aspect. Jeremy is a great option to have on both sides, right and left.
“We all know he’s been very unlucky with his injury record, and we have to manage him whole he has to manage himself. If he stays fit, he’s a really big player for us. I think it’s important players feel ready when they’re coming back, especially as he’s facing Luton, Leeds, Blackburn, so we’ll possibly use the Under-21 games to get him time on the pitch.”
