Nottingham Forest striker Emmanuel Dennis is a surprise target for Leeds United.

The Elland Road club are hoping to improve their front line as they face a season in the Championship.

As the Whites are determined to come straight back up to the Premier League, they will have to spend if they want to bolster their squad.

Per Nigerian outlet Mobile Punch, Dennis is very likely to leave Forest after falling out of favor with boss Steve Cooper.

The 26-year-old only managed two goals in 27 games for the club last season.

Leeds would be taking a risk in signing a player with such a modest goal total.
