Walfoot, a Belgian media company, is reporting that as well as Brighton, Leicester, Manchester United, Arsenal, Everton, Newcastle United, Crystal Palace, Sheffield United and Watford are also keen.

The 22-year-old striker has attracted admirers from other clubs across the European leagues, including AS Monaco, Lyon and Fenerbahce.

Club Brugge are top of the Belgian Pro League and also boost Brighton loanee Percy Tau among their ranks. Dennis has netted nine goals in 33 appearances for them in all competitions this season.

Dennis scored in a 1-1 draw against Man United in the first leg of their Europa League knockout tie earlier this season.
