Steve Cooper makes Taiwo Awoniyi prediction after Nottingham Forest transfer confirmed

Nottingham Forest head coach Steve Cooper is "delighted" to have beaten other Premier League clubs to the signing of Union Berlin striker Taiwo Awoniyi.

The 24-year-old has arrived at the City Ground on a five-year deal and is head coach Steve Cooper's first signing of the summer. The former Liverpool forward has spoken of his delight after signing, and Cooper has echoed that sentiment.

Cooper has also confirmed there was interest from other Premier League clubs in Awoniyi, though Forest secured their man and others are likely to follow in the coming weeks. He brings an exciting record with him after 20 goals in 43 appearances last season.
