Ibrahim Sangare explains why Nottingham Forest scored a £30 million transfer coup by saying, “Biggest difference.”
Paul Onuachu, Dennis’ native countryman, is reportedly being considered by Trabzonspor despite being set to depart Southampton after a disastrous stint on the south coast, according to Own Goal Nigeria. According to The Daily Mail, Onuachu will undergo a medical before a transfer.
Dennis signed a four-year contract with the Reds one year ago after transferring from Watford. He had trouble contributing last season, though, and hasn’t played yet this one.
Before the deadline on previous Friday, Forest increased their assault capabilities. In the last 24 hours of the window, they signed winger Callum Hudson-Odoi and striker Divock Origi. Earlier in the window, Anthony Elanga had already joined Steve Cooper’s team.
