Dahlberg is poised to return in the summer of 2022 after another loan spell away next term when Foster’s contract expires.

The Sweden international joined Watford in 2018 and penned a lengthy five-and-a-half year deal with the Hertfordshire club. He hasn’t made a senior appearance for them yet.

The 6ft 4inc ‘keeper was immediately shipped out to IFK Göteborg, who he was signed from, before he spent time in Holland last year at FC Emmen.

It will be interesting to see where Watford decide to loan him next season. They may fancy testing him in the Football League, possibly in the Championship or League One.
