The contract termination with Nottingham Forest was officially announced just days ago, making him a free agent and allowing him to join a new club outside of the main transfer window deadlines.

Dennis, who recently left the Tricky Tres on mutual grounds, is said to be discussing a two-year contract with Antalyaspor. The 27-year-old ‘s time at Nottingham Forest was challenging, lacking impact which led to several loan spells.

He spent the second half of last season on loan with Sky Bet Championship club Blackburn Rovers, where his fortunes did not improve. He failed to score in seven appearances and was not offered a permanent deal.

It is reported that discussions are progressing smoothly, and an agreement could be reached imminently.

The move would mark the Nigerian’s return to Turkish football, where he previously had a loan spell with Istanbul Başakşehir.
