When it comes to injuries at Nottingham Forest, it never rains, it pours. Now, Nuno Espirito Santo has confirmed a hammer blow for another one of his top stars.
Forest have had a number of injuries to contend with once again during the 2023/24 campaign. Last season, only Chelsea had more injuries across the campaign than the Reds and things haven’t changed much this time around.
In fairness, right now, Forest have most of their squad available for selection. Ola Aina and Gonzalo Montiel returned to the squad on Saturday but a couple are still out of action.
After the 1-1 draw with Crystal Palace, Espirito Santo claimed that Willy Boly would need to be assessed ahead of tonight’s clash with Fulham – but Taiwo Awoniyi isn’t so luckily.
It’s been a pretty miserable campaign for the Nigerian. He was forced to have surgery on his groin that ruled him out for a couple of months earlier in the season and now he’s on the treatment table again.
