Everton Line Up Move For Awoniyi

Everton are the latest club to be linked with Nottingham Forest forward, Taiwo Awoniyi.

The Nigeria international has struggled for regular playing time this season.

Awoniyi is behind Chris Wood in the pecking order.

Despite his limited playing time, the striker has expressed his desire to remain at the club.

Manager Nuno Espirito Santo has also insisted he can play a key role in the remainder of the campaign.

Everton are however targeting a potential late swoop for the former Union Berlin player.

The 27-year-old is said to be among a number of names on the Toffees’ shortlist as they seek attacking reinforcements, with a reported £33.5 million cash pot to use on signing two players.

Awoniyi has scored once in 20 league appearances for Forest this season.
