Nigeria forward Emmanuel Dennis says he can’t wait to get started at Blackburn Rovers.
Dennis completed his loan move to the Rovers from Premier League club Southampton on deadline day.
The Nigeria declared that the club’s supporters can expect the best from me.
“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 to RoversTV after securing his switch.
“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. They come for fun, some happy moments and victories.
“People come from home to sit in the cold and watch us play, so you have to give them something.
“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!
“I’m really happy, really excited and I can’t wait to meet all the lads and to start playing with the team,” added Dennis, who has also played in Ukraine, Belgium, Germany and Turkey in his much-travelled career.
“I like lots about playing in England. I like the banter, I like the atmosphere and the fans. I’m used to playing in England now and I like everything about the people, who are so funny and respectful, but I don’t like the weather!
“I’m very, very hungry to play football and I hope we’ll have some great moments together.
“I’m really happy and I’m ready to give my all for the club, because I really appreciate being brought here.”
