The injury had triggered an argument between club owner Evangelos Marinakis and team manager Nuno Espirito Santo.
The former Union attacker Taiwo Awoniyi by Premier League club Nottingham Forest has been operated on due to a belly injury. Several media report this. The 27-year-old had suffered the injury to Leicester City on Sunday, as a result there was an argument between Nottingham’s club owner Evangelos Marinakis and TeamManager Nuno Espirito Santo.
Awoniyi, from 2021 to 2022 Profi at Bundesliga club Union Berlin, crashed into the post on Sunday when he tried to reach a flank. The extent of the injury only turned out on Monday. There should not have been any danger to life.
After the game, club owner Marinakis stormed onto the pitch and had vigorously confronted Espirito Santo. On his Instagram profile, the Greek later played up the excitement as a frustration with a misjudgment of the medical staff with regard to the operational ability of Awoniyi. “We all – coaching staff, players, fans and me – were frustrated with the injury and the assessment of whether Taiwo can continue the game,” wrote the 57 -year -old. Awoniyi had been substituted in the 83rd minute and injured himself shortly afterwards.
Nottingham missed the jump to the Champions League places through the draw and has been without victory for three weeks. In the case of two outstanding games, Forest has a point behind the fifth place in the table, which entitles you to participate in the Champions League in England and must hope for slips from the competition. The first participation in a European competition in 30 years is Nottingham.
