Nottingham Forest hit with injury setback as transfer need grows

Nottingham Forest have been dealt with an injury setback as Taiwo Awoniyi is expected to be on the sidelines for longer than expected.

The Nigerian forward was substituted with 20 minutes to go against Southampton on 4 January, a game in which he scored the winner. Afterwards he said that he felt "soreness in the groin", but added that he was fine.

Awoniyi has not been included in a matchday squad in the fortnight since then, however, with fears over the extent of his injury growing in that time. It now appears that he may not feature for the Reds for a while.
