Anthony Dennis is attracting interest from Brentford, with the Premier League club monitoring the Göztepe defensive midfielder’s situation as speculation grows over his future in Türkiye.
The 21-year-old Nigerian, valued at €5.00m on transfermarkt, has been linked with a move from the Süper Lig side to west London, according to the latest data scraped on 22 December 2025. The level of probability attached to the transfer is not specified, underlining that talks, if any, remain at an early and uncertain stage.
Dennis is currently under contract at Göztepe, but no expiry date is listed, leaving open the possibility that he could move into free-agent territory in the medium term if new terms are not agreed. That contractual opacity has contributed to mounting rumours around his next step, with Brentford understood to be among the clubs assessing his development.
Born in Kaduna on 21 June 2004, the right-footed midfielder has risen quickly since leaving HB Academy Abuja in Nigeria for Göztepe’s under-19 side in January 2023. He was promoted to the senior squad in July 2023 and has since established himself in defensive midfield, a position that has seen his market value increase sharply from €25,000 in late 2023 to €5.00m by October 2025.
The data does not include specific recent match details or individual performance statistics, but the steady growth in his valuation across the 2024 and 2025 assessments suggests consistent impact in the Turkish top flight.
For Brentford, a move for Dennis would fit their established model of targeting emerging talent from less heavily scouted markets, while for the player it would represent a significant leap from the Süper Lig to the Premier League. Should the transfer materialise, it could prove a defining moment in his early career, offering a platform to enhance both his reputation in Europe and his long-term potential at club and international level.
