Rob Edwards, the manager of Watford, has confirmed that Emmanuel Dennis, a Nigerian international, has officially joined Nottingham Forest.
Watford’s squad for tonight’s match against Burnley did not include the Super Eagles forward.
Edwards also stated that the player’s departure “is progressing.” According to The Athletic, Nottingham Forest have agreed a £20m deal with Watford to sign Emmanuel Dennis.
And the striker’s absence from tonight’s game at Vicarage Road is obvious, according to the Hornets’ head coach, because he is in Nottingham getting a medical before moving to Forest.
Speaking to Sky Sports, Edwards said:: “It’s progressing. I said in the media yesterday that everyone who we picked in the squad tonight would be fully focused and with us, and so that one’s progressing.”
