Latest Nottingham Forest news as Nuno Espirito Santo's Reds battle to avoid Premier League relegation
The Reds have six games remaining as they battle to avoid relegation from the Premier League. It would be a big boost for head coach Nuno Espirito Santo if Awoniyi is in contention to feature in some of those fixtures.
The Nigeria international has already missed a chunk of the season after having groin surgery in a bid to solve a longstanding problem. He made his comeback in January but Nuno had talked about managing him carefully as he struggled to return to full sharpness. READ MORE: How Gibbs-White can prove Forest point against Wolves
Awoniyi then suffered a thigh problem in the build-up to last month’s draw with Luton Town which was due to rule him out for a few weeks. The initial diagnosis suggested it was difficult to put an exact timeframe on how long he could be out for, but it was believed he could be absent from anywhere between two to five weeks.
He is now set to undergo a scan this week, according to The Telegraph. It is hoped the scan will provide clarity on when Awoniyi can make his comeback.“It is a big blow for us because he had just come back . The importance of Taiwo is huge. He gives us another option. I don’t know exactly how long he will be out for but I am positive we are going to see him again this season."
Forest also have Willy Boly and Nuno Tavares sidelined, although the latter is also said to be nearing a return. Morgan Gibbs-White came off in last weekend’s 3-1 defeat at Tottenham Hotspur and immediately applied an ice pack to his leg, but it is hoped he will be fit to face former club Wolverhampton Wanderers on Saturday.
