Coventry City signs Nigerian Tayo Ounay
Coventry City has signed Nigerian forward Taiwo Awoniyi from Nottingham Forest for £9 million, a significant step as the club prepares to return to the Premier League after a 25-year absence. The negotiations with Awoniyi come as part of efforts to strengthen the attack due to Haji Wright's injury, and it is expected that he will feature in the opening match against Arsenal. Coach Frank Lampard is eager to bolster his offensive options. Awoniyi has scored 23 goals in 103 appearances for Forest and joined the club from Union Berlin for £17.2 million in 2022. He is considered one of the club's top players. Coventry aims to improve its attacking capabilities ahead of challenging fixtures, especially after previously strengthening the squad with several new signings to prepare for the upcoming season.
