Blackburn Rovers' deadline day signing, Emmanuel Dennis, has assured fans that exciting moments await after joining the club on loan from Nottingham Forest for the remainder of the season. 

The Nigerian international, who became Rovers' sixth signing of the January transfer window, is eager to make an impact and entertain supporters at Ewood Park.

The 27-year-old forward, who boasts experience in the Champions League, Premier League, and Championship, strengthens John Eustace’s attacking options as Rovers continue their push for a play-off spot. 

Speaking to RoversTV, Dennis expressed his enthusiasm about the move and his desire to contribute to the team’s success.

"Rovers are in a very good position and the team plays good football, so I hope I can add a bit of something to the team for us to have a good time together," he said.

Dennis, known for his flair and technical ability, emphasized that he is not just focused on scoring goals but also on bringing entertainment to the pitch.

"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," he added. "They come for fun, some happy moments and victories."

The Nigerian forward acknowledged the dedication of fans who brave the cold to watch their team and vowed to give them something memorable in return.

"People come from home to sit in the cold and watch us play, so you have to give them something," he stated.

Dennis, who has previously played for clubs such as Watford, Club Brugge, and Köln, is eager to bring his experience and energy to Blackburn’s promotion bid. 

He believes his style of play will connect well with the fans and create an enjoyable atmosphere.

"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!" he concluded.
