[Albion] Emmanuel Dennis

[vagabond]

Another striker we're linked to, from good old Belgium again. Looks like we'll have some competition though.

Club Brugge have reportedly named their price for striker Emmanuel Dennis.

The Nigerian international has been linked with a move to Leicester City as well as Premier League rivals Manchester United, Arsenal and Manchester City.

European sides AS Monaco, Olympique Lyon and Fenerbahce have also been credited with an interest in the 22-year-old.

United scouted Dennis over the weekend , according to Eurosport, watching him score a clever back-heeled goal in Brugge's 3-0 defeat of KV Mechelen in the The Belgian First Division A.

Now French publication Foot Mercato say United representatives have entered talks with Philippe Clement's side about a move for the former Zorya Luhansk man.

Brighton and Hove Albion and Southampton have also joined City in the race for Dennis, the report adds, with Brugge valuing the striker at €30 million.

Dennis has two-and-a-half years left on his current deal at the Jan Breydel Stadium.

and the obligatory highlights reel:

 

[Eeyore]

Decent player. Watched him in the ECL. Would suit 4-4-2 or on shoulder. He won't be coming here. Not sure about £25-30m either.

 

[Dick Swiveller]

I like when she sat in that wicker chair.

 

[Russconha]

Links well with Tau, shows up in the big games, great first touch. Could do a job.

 

[Worried Man Blues]

Definitely need more Waloons

He could come here as part of a deal where Percy Tau stays permanently at Brugge

Not prolific in the Belgian league, sounds a big price tag.

What has he got that Percy hasn’t?

Our Perc has scored 3 from 14 appearances in the Juliper whilst this Dennis Punt is only slightly ahead with 4 from 14. I’m sure that he is not faster or more skilful than Percy.

He is also the same height as Connolly & Tau. Do we need another dwarfed speedy Gonzales?

I’m presuming that this ‘new’ striker will be after Murray’s bench role with the potential to oust Maupay or Connolly.

In my opinion, we need a 6ft+ striker with power, pace, massive ability in the air and wonderfully intelligent movement. Potter has form with liking a McBurnie style player. Mlakar or Gyökeres might not make the grade in time so I expect to see a signing along these lines soon, maybe even next month. Just not a shorty.

No WAG pic, no highlights reel, no anecdotal info from STH pals at current team about being shitehouse...........poor. 2/10.

Posh Spice is a slapper
She thinks she's Jessie Ennis
But when she's shagging Beckham
She thinks of Manny Dennis

 

[Gwylan]

€30m ? Doesn't sound like our sort of player

 

[spanish flair]

What has he got that Percy hasn’t?

Possibly the ability to get a work permit?

*Thumbs down*

Roman Yaremchuk is the man for me if we’re Christmas shopping in Belgium.

 

[Medwayseagull]

Is this a test to see if any mods are awake to merge threads ?

 

[Blue Valkyrie]

Possibly the ability to get a work permit?

No need to give up on Percy's permit just yet.

Two years does seem a long time getting one
