Belgian football giants Anderlecht are reportedly stepping up their efforts to sign Nigerian midfielder Anthony Dennis, who currently plies his trade with Turkish Süper Lig club Göztepe.
The news, reported by Turkish journalist Orcun Okten, suggests that Anderlecht have been closely monitoring Dennis throughout the season, with regular scouting reports reinforcing their interest.
Anthony Dennis, a 20-year-old (born June 21, 2004) who operates as a defensive and central midfielder, has become a key figure for Göztepe, playing a significant role in their promotion to the Süper Lig. His performances have not gone unnoticed, with clubs from the German Bundesliga and French Ligue 1 also reportedly in the race for his signature—setting the stage for a potential multi-club bidding war.
According to Transfermarkt, Dennis’s current market value stands at €4 million as of June 18, 2025. This valuation reflects his rising profile and potential for a move to a higher-tier league.
Anderlecht’s continued interest, combined with reported competition from other top European sides, underscores the strong belief in Dennis’s abilities. With the summer transfer window now officially open, the coming weeks will likely determine whether Anderlecht can secure the services of the promising Nigerian talent and bring him to Lotto Park.
