Uche Ikpeazu has been recalled by Watford less than 24 hours after agreeing to remain with Crewe Alexandra until the end of the season and will now join another Football League club on loan.

The 19-year-old striker only yesterday extended his stay with the Railwaymen until the end of the season but has this morning seen his stay cut short ahead of a loan switch to another club.

Ikpeazu netted twice in seven starts for Steve Davis' side after joining last November. The former Reading youngster scored four times in ten starts last season for the Cheshire outfit.
