'No brainer' - Nottingham Forest sent £20m transfer message amid key decision

Nottingham Forest fans have urged their club to follow through with their interest in Watford forward Emmanuel Dennis.

The Nigeria international only joined the Hornets last summer from Club Brugge and made a good impression despite their relegation to the Championship. Dennis scored 10 goals and provided six assists in the Premier League in 2021-22 and has been linked with a move away from Vicarage Road.

According to Sky Sports, the Reds are deciding whether to "formalise their interest" in the striker with a loan and an option to buy the player preferred by Steve Cooper. The 24-year-old is also wanted by Everton, Fulham, Southampton, West Ham and Villarreal.

With Cooper keen to bolster his attacking options, Forest fans have called for the club to take action to land the Nigerian, with Dennis potentially set to join his compatriot in club record signing Taiwo Awoniyi in the Reds' forward line.

Here is what they have had to say...

@Jamief_: Yes yes and yes, get Sarr while you're there, too good for the Championship

@Willh1985: Absolute no brainer for me out of all the forwards we've been linked to. In an ideal world we would also bring in MGW, the Villarreal left back, Freuler and another defensive mid and all ready to compete.

@Jonny90nffc: Out of all the strikers we've been linked with, he's the one for me, attainable aswell. Pay the £20m worth every penny. #NFFC

@BankzyNFFC: Get this one done. Class player

@patrickhunt1: Class player

@eastwoodred86: Loan to buy? Offer them a decent fee. Dennis, Garner, Davis and a midfield destroyer and that would complete the squad for me.

@kanegoswell: This is what keeps us up

@lewistodd28: Get it done
