Watford midfielder Josh Walker has re-joined Stevenage on loan until mid-January.

The former Middlesbrough midfielder has found first team opportunities hard to come by at Vicarage Road and has only made six substitute appearances and one start since he joined on a free transfer last summer.

Walker joined Stevenage on loan last November but only made two appearances before he was recalled by Watford due to an injury to Stephen McGinn.

The 22-year-old has made one start and a substitute appearance for the Hornets this season but has moved further down the pecking order following the arrival of Jonathan Hogg from Aston Villa.
