Premier League Awoniyi In Doubt For Forest League Opener Against Arsenal

For Saturday’s Premier League match against Arsenal, Nottingham Forest attacker Taiwo Awoniyi is questionable.

The 25-year-old has resumed training following his recovery from an ankle injury.

The manager, Steve Cooper, has expressed concern about the Nigerian international’s availability for the journey to the Emirates Stadium since he has not yet reached peak condition.

Felipe, for sure. Moussa is just about returning to training, and so is Taiwo, so the game probably comes too soon for them,”Cooper told a press conference on Thursday.

Awoniyi scored 10 goals in the Premier League last season after joining the Reds from Bundesliga team Union Berlin last summer.

However, Emmanuel Dennis and Ola Aina, two of his international teammates, are available for the game.
