Fenerbahce have entered the race to sign Club Brugge's Nigeria international Emmanuel Dennis.

Turkish media outlet Sabah says the Yellow Canaries have identified nine players who can replace Kosovo star Vedat Muriqi who is being linked with a host of clubs abroad including Tottenham Hotspur.

Dennis, Yuri Alberto, Aleksandar Prijovic, Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting,Nikola Kalinic, Gerson Rodrigues, Mario Mandzukic, Mergim Berisha and Mario Balotelli are the candidates being considered.

The Super Eagle is also attracting interest from multiple clubs in the English Premier League and Italian Serie A.

Club Brugge would be open to selling Dennis in the summer, provided an interested club meet his asking price thought to be in the region of 25 million euros, which could be a problem for clubs outside the big five European Leagues including Fenerbahce.

The 22-year-old put himself in the shop window by scoring a brace against Real Madrid in the Champions League, before finding the net against Manchester United in the Europa League.
