Super Eagles winger, Samuel Kalu will play no part in Watford’s Sky Bet Championship clash against Hull City.
Kalu sustained an injury while in action for the Hornets two months ago.
Slaven Bilic’s men will return to action after the World Cup break with a home fixture against Hull City.
Kalu has struggled to stay fit since linking up with the London club.
The Nigerian has played just six games for Watford this season.
“Picking up an ankle injury against Wigan Athletic in October and playing through pain leading up to the break in fixtures, Samuel Kalu has been recovering over the last month,” Watford wrote on their official website.
“The Nigerian forward needs more time before a return to action.”
William Troost-Ekong, Maduka Okoye and Tom Dele-Bashiru are the other Nigerians at the club.
