Dortmund, Leipzig, Napoli Interested In Super Eagles Star

Following his impressive performance in the Belgian top-flight this campaign, a host of top European sides have enquired about the services of Super Eagles attacker, Emmanuel Dennis.

The 22-year-old is already seen as a potential replacement for Jadon Sancho at Dortmund, but the Black and Yellows are not the only side interested in his services.

According to GFFN, RB Leipzig, Napoli, Bayer Leverkusen and Southampton have all enquired about the services of the Nigeria international.

The former Zorya Lugansk star was one of Club Brugge’s top performers this season as the Blauw-Zwart won the Jupiler Pro League.

Brugge won the league after the playoffs were cancelled due to the coronavirus pandemic. However, Dennis played a vital role to ensure Brugge led the table in the regular season.

The 22-year-old scored nine times and provided two assists in 33 games for Phillipe Clement’s side this season.

His most beautiful moment came when he scored Brugge’s goals in the stunning 2-2 draw against Real Madrid in last September’s champions league clash at the Santiago Bernabeu.

And that’s made Europe topsides enquire about his services with reports suggesting Borussia Dortmund are about to begin formal negotiations with Brugge.

Dennis joined Brugge from  Zorya Lugansk in 2017.
