The 24-year-old Nigerian striker, scored 10 league goals in 35 appearances for Watford last season. He was in the starting eleven of both of Watford’s first two games of the season but did not feature in Friday’s 1-0 Championship win over Burnley.
Kouyate, a free agent after his contract at Palace ended in July signed a two-year deal. He played 31 times for the Eagles last season having joined the club from West Ham in 2018.
Forest not done this summer
It seems Forest are not done with recruitment this summer. The club have also been linked with Atalanta midfielder Remo Freuler.
They have been able to sign top players like Jesse Lingard and Dean Henderson. The England keeper joined on loan from Manchester United while the club also broke their transfer record to sign striker Taiwo Awoniyi from Union Berlin for a reported £17m.
This means Dennis could partner upfront with his fellow Super Eagles striker.
