Nuno Espirito Santo, the manager of Nottingham Forest, has shared encouraging news about Taiwo Awoniyi’s recovery after his recent serious surgery. The Nigerian striker faced a tough challenge earlier this season when he suffered a critical abdominal injury during a heated 2-2 Premier League clash against Leicester City. The collision with a goalpost forced him into emergency surgery, sidelining him for the rest of the campaign.
Despite setbacks, Nuno expressed optimism about Awoniyi’s progress. “He’s doing much better now,” said the coach. “Taiwo can walk comfortably, and doctors have confirmed he’s beginning to get back to normal activities. This is a vital phase in his healing process, and we’re hopeful he’ll be back to full fitness soon.”
The 27-year-old has battled injuries throughout the year, compounded by stiff competition following the signing of Chris Wood. However, with his current recovery status, fans are optimistic about seeing Awoniyi in action again next season. His return could be a major boost for Nottingham Forest’s future campaigns!
