Through their official website, Premier League new boys Watford have announced the temporary departure of exciting youngster Joseph Hungbo, subject to international clearance.
Hungbo will be spending the remainder of the 2021-2022 campaign on loan at Scottish Premiership side Ross County.
The Crystal Palace academy product is the second Nigeria-eligible winger to depart the Hornets on a temporary basis this month, after Glasgow Rangers-reared starlet Dapo Mebude.
Aged 21, Hungbo is credited with eight appearances for Watford's first team, including matches in the Emirates FA cup against Tranmere Rovers and Manchester United.
Speaking on his new signing, Ross County manager Malky Mackay told the club's official website : "Joseph is an exciting prospect, who has played in the Championship, learned his trade at two Premier League Clubs and, at 21, he has already shown a terrific appetite to play at the top level of the game.
"We feel this can be a really good move for him to challenge and prove himself in the SPFL."
Hungbo joined the Hornets in July 2019 following his departure from Crystal Palace.
