Arsenal legend, Ian Wright has revealed that Watford will miss the services of Super Eagles forward, Emmanuel Dennis, when he leaves to represent Nigeria at 2021 Africa Cup of Nations in Cameroon.
Dennis was included in the 28-man squad that was released by Super Eagles interim coach, Austine Eguavoen for the tournament which is slate to commence on January 9.
The Nigerian international has directly been involved in ten goals in his last eight league matches, being six goals and four assists and has contributed in 66.7 percent of the goals Watford have scored in those games.
“At the start Tim (Sherwood) mentioned that he (Dennis) is the one if anything could happen it’s probably going to come from him,” Wright told Premier League Productions.
“That’s beautifully taken, composure, he’s not rushing that.
“He’s going to be sorely missed when he goes to the AFCON because that’s exactly what Watford need.”
