Emmanuel Dennis set to return to Super Eagles after talks with NFF

 

Watford striker, Emmanuel Dennis is set to return to the Super Eagles ahead of Nigeria’s World Cup play-off against Ghana next month after holding clear-the-air talks with the president of the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF), Anaju Pinnick.

Recall Dennis did not play at the recent Africa Cup of Nations, with the NFF claiming Watford were “baring fangs” over the situation.

The forward had not originally been named in Nigeria’s squad for the tournament as he was out of favour under former boss Gernot Rohr. But when Rohr was sacked before AFCON, Dennis was to join as a late call-up, but he stayed back after his club refused to let him join the Super Eagles squad.
