According to the Daily Star, a Watford spokesman said: “Both Joao and his girlfriend are acutely aware of both the legality and cultural differences between the UK and Brazil.

“She has flown back to Brazil, will remain resident there and has no intention of returning to England until after her 16th birthday.”

The legal age of consent in Brazil is 14 although it is 16 in the UK.

Pedro, 18, joined the Hornets from Fluminense in January and made his club debut against Tranmere in the FA Cup.
