Nottingham Forest striker and Nigeria international Taiwo Awoniyi has made a full return to training after recovering from a serious abdominal injury sustained in May.
The 27-year-old was sidelined after suffering a ruptured intestine, which required a complex two-stage surgical procedure.
As earlier reported, the initial phase of the surgery was followed by an induced coma to enable close medical monitoring. The second stage, involving the closure of the wound, was successfully completed three days later.
After a challenging period of recovery, Awoniyi has now rejoined his teammates on the training ground for the first time since the incident.
Confirming his return on Tuesday, Soar Super Eagles shared on X, “Taiwo Awoniyi returns to full training after that serious abdominal injury in May. Great to see him back on the grass.”
Awoniyi’s return comes as a major boost for both Nottingham Forest and the Super Eagles ahead of the new season.
