“Goals are no problem but I like to show tricks" - Emmanuel Dennis vows to thrill Rovers fans
Blackburn Rovers new signing, Emmanuel Dennis has promised Rovers fans a lot of excitement and happy moments after completing a deadline day loan move to the Championship club from from high flying Nottingham Forest.
The Super Eagles forward will be hoping to make good impression and make use of his short loan spell which will be over at the end of the season.
In his first interview with the club, Dennis gave a glimpse of what the fans should expect; “Goals are no problem, but I also like having fun, showing tricks, nutmegs and exciting the fans, because that’s what they come to the stadium to see. They come for fun, some happy moments and victories.
“People come from home to sit in the cold and watch us play, so you have to give them something.
“I’m a happy guy, I’m always happy and it’s a good feeling when I’m scoring goals. I’m excited to go out there in front of the fans and they’re going to have a good time with me!
“I’m really happy, really excited and I can't wait to meet all the lads and to start playing with the team," added Dennis, who has also played in Ukraine, Belgium, Germany and Turkey in his much-travelled career.
“I like lots about playing in England. I like the banter, I like the atmosphere and the fans. I’m used to playing in England now and I like everything about the people, who are so funny and respectful, but I don’t like the weather!
“I’m very, very hungry to play football and I hope we’ll have some great moments together.
“I’m really happy and I’m ready to give my all for the club, because I really appreciate being brought here."
