£59M Star Sends Heartfelt Message to Injured Taiwo Awoniyi Amid Nottingham Forest Transfer Speculation

Nottingham Forest striker Taiwo Awoniyi has spoken out for the first time following a serious injury that has ruled him out for the remainder of the season. Awoniyi suffered a ruptured intestine after a collision during a match against Leicester City, which required emergency surgery.

In a heartfelt Instagram message, Awoniyi expressed his gratitude and resilience, saying, “This has been one of the toughest seasons of my career, but I’ve felt the love throughout. By God’s grace, I’m thankful to still be here—still smiling, still fighting.” The Nigerian striker thanked the Forest family, players, coaches, and staff for their support during his recovery.

Atalanta star Ademola Lookman, a fellow Nigerian and rumored transfer target for Forest, responded with a supportive message, saying, “Speedy recovery bro.” Lookman’s words of encouragement have fueled speculation about a potential summer move to the City Ground.

Lookman, valued at £59 million, has had a stellar season with Atalanta, scoring 20 goals and providing 7 assists. His versatility and proven quality in both domestic and European competitions make him an attractive target for Forest. If signed, Lookman would be a significant coup for the club, and his bond with Awoniyi could be a decisive factor in the transfer negotiations.

As Forest navigates the challenges of the season’s final stretch, the club will be relying on Chris Wood to lead the attack in Awoniyi’s absence. Meanwhile, Awoniyi’s recovery and rehabilitation will be closely monitored, with fans and teammates alike wishing him a speedy return to full fitness.
