Dennis sends message to Eagles ahead of AFCON 2021
Emmanuel Dennis has sent a good-luck message to the Super Eagles of Nigeria ahead of the 2021 Africa Cup of Nations.

While Watford feigned their innocence regarding the situation, the Nigerian also reportedly confessed that he was forced to stay back by his club.
With Nigerians finally admitting going to AFCON without the red-hot forward he now has sent a message to his teammates.
“Wishing the Super Eagles of Nigeria success in the upcoming competition – The African Cup Of Nations (AFCON),” writes Dennis on his official Facebook Page.
Emmnanuel Dennis is relegation-battling Watford top scorer in all competitions this season and one of the best forwards in the Premier League so far.
Nigeria will play a friendly match against Cotton Sports of Cameroon today ahead of their first AFCON game against Egypt on Tuesday.
