WATFORD have announced that they have reached an agreement with Belgian top-flight side Club Brugge over the transfer of Super Eagles forward, Emmanuel Dennis ahead of their return to the Premier League.

 

The Hornets made this know via the club’s website, stating that personal terms are still being finalized with the Nigeria international.

 

“An agreement with Club Brugge has been reached for the transfer of exciting young forward Emmanuel Dennis, Watford FC is delighted to confirm.

 

“The 23-year-old Nigerian spent part of last season on loan in Germany's Bundesliga with 1. FC Köln, having first joined the Belgian top-flight side in the summer of 2017.

 

“A scorer of 27 goals in just over 90 club appearances for Brugge, he has featured in both the UEFA Champions League and UEFA Europa League.


 

“The Hornets are currently finalising personal terms with the pacy striker - capped twice by Nigeria so far - who began his professional career with some experience as a teenager in the Ukranian Premier League with Zorya Luhansk,” the statement read.

 

Dennis now joins three other Nigerians; William Troost-Ekong, Tome Dele Bashiru and Isaac Success who are already playing for the club.
