Nottingham Forest and Emmanuel Dennis agree to terminate his contract by mutual consent

SUPER Eagles striker Emmanuel Dennis is set to leave English Premier League side Nottingham forest after he and the club mutually agreed to terminate his contract in a move that will enable him to find a new club before the transfer window closes tomorrow.

Dennis, 27, joined Nottingham Forest from Watford in 2022 after an impressive 2021/22 campaign that saw him contribute 10 goals and six assists in the Premier League. Unfortunately, however, upon his move to the City Ground, Dennis did not get a lot of game time, as he featured in only 19 games in his first season for Forest.

Since then, it has been downhill for him and due to his lack of game time, he went on loan to Super Lig club Istanbul Basaksehir but he did not cut it there and had to return to Watford on loan. Last season, Dennis had another loan spell at Champions club Blackburn but his performances did not inspire much confidence, so they did not sign him permanently.

At the end of last season, Dennis returned to Nottingham Forest but he has not been involved with any games this season. Dennis did not join his teammates for pre-season training and has not even made any matchday squad this season.

With no bids having come in for him either, Nottingham Forest met with the players' representatives last week and they have now decided to part ways by mutual consent. Now that Dennis has terminated his contract with Nottingham Forest, he is free to join any club wherever and whenever he wants.

No doubt, he will be looking to return to football as soon as possible, as he turns 28 this year and should be performing at his peak. Dennis has eight caps for the Super Eagles, having made his debut in 2019 but he has not played for Nigeria since November 2022.
