Coventry sign striker Awoniyi from Forest

Coventry City announced the signing of Taiwo Awoniyi from fellow Premier League ​side Nottingham Forest on Monday, as ‌media reports said the Nigeria striker joined for a fee of around nine million pounds ($12 ​million).

Awoniyi, 29, spent his six ​years as a Liverpool player on various ⁠loan spells and had a stint ​at Union Berlin before joining Forest in ​2022.
He made 90 Premier League appearances for Forest and scored 21 goals.
An injury from a collision with ​the post forced Awoniyi to undergo ​abdominal surgery in May 2025, during which he ‌was ⁠placed in an artificially induced coma.
He returned in July, but suffered a knee injury in November that kept him out for ​another month ​last season.
"I'm ⁠really looking forward to working with my new teammates, I ​have seen how amazing they ​have ⁠been last season, coming up from the Championship," Awoniyi said in a statement.
Coventry visit ⁠Arsenal ​on Friday for their ​first Premier League game in 25 years.
