Super Eagles striker Emmanuel Dennis is one step away from his announcement and putting pen to a £20 million move to Nottingham Forest, reports BSNSports.com.ng.

The Nigerian was left out of Watford's squad for Friday night's clash with Burnley, with Rob Edwards confirming that his exit 'is progressing'.

The striker was in Nottingham undergoing a medical ahead of a move to Forest, and according to the Hornets' head coach, the reason for his absence at Vicarage Road on Friday night is clear.

Speaking to Sky Sports, Edwards said:: “It’s progressing. I said in the media on Thursday that everyone who we picked in the squad tonight would be fully focused and with us, and so that one’s progressing.”

Both clubs were in the final stages of the deal on Friday afternoon, as personal terms between Nottingham Forest and Dennis have been agreed upon.

Belgium side Club Brugge will take 5% of the fee on their former striker who scored 10 EPL goals for the Hornets last season.
