Nottingham Forest’s Awoniyi poised for return against Arsenal in EPL

Preparing for Nottingham Forest’s match against Arsenal on Tuesday, Taiwo Awoniyi is likely to make his comeback after recovering from injury, according to reports by NewsNow.

Awoniyi suffered a groin injury while representing his country in October 2023. Subsequently, the 26-year-old underwent surgery and has been absent from action since.

“Awoniyi is currently in the process of recuperating and regaining his fitness levels. We made the decision to include him in the group instead of waiting for him to be completely ready. Following that, we will make a decision,” stated Nuno Espirito Santo, Nottingham Forest’s head coach.

Throughout this season, the Nigerian player has tallied four goals and two assists in 10 league appearances for the club. Last season, he emerged as their top scorer with 10 goals.
