Nottingham Forest Set To Offload Striker 5 Months After £20M Move

• Emmanuel Dennis could be out of Premier League club Nottingham Forest just after five months
• The Nigerian international has been far from impressive for the club, starting just three games
• Nottingham is prepared to bolster the squad this season, and some players will need to leave

English Premier League club Nottingham Forest is prepared to offload Nigerian international Emmanuel Dennis who joined last summer.

The Super Eagles forward joined the Premier League returnees for an agreed fee of about £20million.

Emmanuel Dennis was impressive for Watford during the 2021/2022 season netting 10 goals and also creating six assists, but it could not help the club which eventually got relegated.

His move to Forest has not been of much impact as he only managed to start three games so far this season, scoring just one goal.

According to the English FA rules, players cannot play for three teams in the same season.
