Nottingham Forest have agreed a £20m deal with Watford for striker Emmanuel Dennis.
They are still keen to improve Steve Cooper's squad to ensure the club does not return straight back to the Championship.
The Nigerian scored 10 league goals in 35 appearances for Watford last season.
But he only scored two in his final 17 games as the Hornets were relegated.
He has started both of Watford's games so far this term but is yet to find the net.
Forest have also been linked with Atalanta midfielder Remo Freuler and former Crystal Palace midfielder Cheikhou Kouyate.
