‘Dennis is a very talented player’ – Watford’s Ranieri sings praises of Nigeria star ahead of Arsenal clash

Watford manager Claudio Ranieri has backed striker Emmanuel Dennis to produce a good performance when they take on Arsenal in a Premier League fixture on Sunday.

The 23-year-old Nigeria international missed the Hornets’ last league assignment against Southampton after accumulating five yellow cards but he will now be available when they visit the Emirates Stadium to face the Gunners.

Before his suspension, Dennis, who has so far scored three goals from 11 appearances, was the team’s star player when he scored and set up two goals as they came from behind to beat Everton 5-2 at Goodison Park.
