Transfers: Another Nigerian Star Could Follow Osimhen To Italy

The former Royal Charleroi striker finally joined Napoli on a five-year deal, but he may not be the only Super Eagles star moving to Italy this summer

Super Eagles winger, Emmanuel Dennis is a target for Serie A club, Inter Milan, although face competition from Leeds United.

According to Manu Lonjon, the Nerazzurri and newly-promoted Premier League side, Leeds have started negotiations with the Super Eagles star. Leeds are in the market for a striker as there are doubts over Patrick Bamford’s ability in the English top-flight.

Meanwhile, Inter Milan are looking to add more firepower to their attack, and they believe Dennis can be the man.

The 22-year-old is currently on the books of Belgian champions, Club Brugge. The Nigerian international played 33 times in all competitions for the Blauw-Zwart, scoring nine goals, and registering two assists.

His highlight of the season came when he scored twice in a Champions League encounter between Real Madrid and Club Brugge at the Santiago Bernabeu.
