English Premier League club line up £20M bid for Super Eagles of Nigeria forward Emmanuel Dennis

Earlier, Sports Brief had reported how newly-promoted English Premier League club Nottingham Forest are looking to bolster their squad before the summer transfer window ends and are considering Emmanuel Dennis as an option.

The Nigerian international is desperate to move away from Championship club Watford following their relegation from the Premier League last season.

During the last campaign, the 24-year-old scored 10 goals for the Hornets and made six assists.

Nottingham Forest manager Steve Cooper is determined to bring in a striker despite already signing Dennis’ international teammates, Taiwo Awoniyi and then England star Jesse Lingard.

They are desperate to make a swift sale to raise money and possibly sign the Nigerian on loan, with an option to buy.
