Nigeria International and newly acquired Nottingham Forest attacker Emmanuel Dennis has revealed the reason he choose football as a career and what he intended to achieve for the club this season, BSNsports.com.ng has gathered.

Dennis joined the newly promoted Premier League club this summer from Watford FC after a decent outing at the Vicarage Road last season.

He granted his first interview with the club media on Thursday morning and said former Brazilian international Ronaldinho prompted him into taking football as a career.

“My idol growing up was Ronaldinho,"he’s the reason I’m a footballer today.

“I just love everything about that guy and his talent with a football inspires me a lot. When I play, I just like to entertain people and have fun.

“I really like to nutmeg people. I had the most nutmegs in Europe last season which was crazy.

“I just love to have fun on the pitch, but I also want to score goals and add assists.

“I don’t really set targets, I just like to go and play and express myself," he said.
