Emmanuel Dennis’s future with Nottingham Forest remains uncertain as the Nigerian striker is reportedly nearing a potential move to a Turkish club before the country’s transfer window closes on Friday. According to The Athletic, despite his disappointing performance since joining Forest last summer, there are several clubs in Turkey showing interest in acquiring his services on loan.
Dennis arrived at Nottingham Forest as part of the team’s squad overhaul following their promotion to the Premier League. However, he has failed to meet expectations, finding the back of the net just twice in his 19 league appearances under manager Steve Cooper. As a result, the club has been actively searching for options to offload him.
Unfortunately for Nottingham Forest, Dennis was unable to secure a move before the major European transfer windows closed. Nevertheless, there is still hope for the 23-year-old striker as the transfer market in Turkey remains open.
Representatives of the player are reportedly engaged in discussions with Turkish clubs to explore the possibility of a loan deal. It is highly anticipated that Dennis may secure a move to a Turkish side over the weekend, although it is uncertain which specific club he may join. Talks with Trabzonspor, previously close to completion, have hit a roadblock.
Time will tell if Emmanuel Dennis’s Turkish escape will materialize, providing him with a fresh start to revive his career. Nottingham Forest will likely continue their efforts to offload the striker and utilize the transfer window to reshape their squad.
