Coventry City manager, Frank Lampard has revealed why Taiwo Awoniyi left Nottingham Forest for Coventry.
He said the Nigerian was frustrated at Forest over a lack of game time and was ambitious to secure consistent playing time.
The Nigerian international made the move to the CBS Arena during the current summer transfer window following his end-of-season performances for Forest, where he netted three goals and provided two assists in his last six matches.
In a pre-match press briefing ahead of Coventry City’s Premier League opener against Arsenal, Lampard commended the Nigerian international’s attributes, particularly noting his impressive performance against Chelsea during his (Lampard) tenure as manager of the Blues.
