Nottingham Forest has excluded Emmanuel Dennis from their final 25-man squad list for the 2023/24 Premier League season.
The Nigerian forward was deemed surplus to requirements after he rejected a loan move to Russian outfit CSKA Moscow.
He is reportedly closing on a move to Turkey with Adana Demirspor and Istanbul Basaksehir, with both clubs tabling offers for the 26-year-old before Friday’s deadline.
According to Transfer football expert, Fabrizio Romano, both Turkish clubs have been told to present loan bids for the Nigerian, with his salary covered 100 per cent in the proposed deal.
