Watford boss Tom Cleverley expects Belgian midfielder Pierre Dwomoh to return to training next week after almost two months on the sidelines.

The 20-year-old has not played since suffering a thigh injury during the 4-1 FA Cup defeat by Premier League side Fulham on 9 January.

Goalkeeper Daniel Bachmann is two weeks away from a return to training, having damaged ankle ligaments against Sheffield United, also in January.

Cleverley has put a similar timescale on forward Kwadwo Baah and hopes all three will be available for selection following the international break.

Meanwhile, US full-back Caleb Wiley is now fully match fit after joining the Hornets during the January transfer window.

"He looks a very promising player," Cleverley told the club website.

"He needs to learn some of the arts you will need in the Championship, and he will. He is a bright lad, and willing to learn."

Watford are 10th in the Championship, three points outside the play-off places, ahead of Saturday's home game against Millwall.
