A move away on loan for Fosu fell through late in the summer transfer window.
Despite being named in the club's 25-man Premier League squad for the first half of the regular season, he was largely frozen out of the matchday squads in all competitions.
Prior to undergoing surgery on a hamstring injury suffered during training in November 2021, Fosu had been restricted to two EFL Cup appearances.
