Midfielder JJ McKiernan has re-joined National League side Eastleigh FC on loan until the end of the season, Watford FC confirms.
The 21-year-old - who joined the Hornets in 2018, and travelled to Austria with the first-team during pre-season last July after a successful 2021/22 with the Academy and on loan at Bohemians - enjoyed an impressive first half of the current campaign with the Spitfires.
After notching three goals in 26 appearances at the Silverlake Stadium, Northern Irishman McKiernan will now further his development back in Hampshire, with Eastleigh currently sat 11th in the fifth-tier standings.
Good luck, JJ!
