Nottingham Forest Manager, Nuno Espirito Santo, has acknowledged that Taiwo Awoniyi is still working towards full fitness, despite his notable scoring streak.
Taiwo Awoniyi made his comeback for Forest in January after being sidelined for approximately three months with a groin injury.
The Nigerian international showcased his scoring prowess by netting the opening goal in Forest’s 2-0 victory over West Ham United at the City Ground on Saturday. This marked his second goal since his return from injury.
Santo emphasized the importance of carefully managing the 26-year-old’s fitness for the remainder of the campaign. It’s clear that while Awoniyi has been making an impact on the pitch, the priority remains ensuring his long-term fitness and well-being.
