"Taiwo Awoniyi is a product of Imperial Football Academy, and he isn't moving anywhere – he's going to stay in England until he obtains his passport."

Seyi Olofinjana, former Super Eagles star and owner of Imperial Football Academy who sourced Awoniyi, disclosed that the striker is pursuing a second passport and so he has to obtain this before a move away from England.
“Taiwo Awoniyi is a product of Imperial Football Academy, and he isn’t moving anywhere – he’s going to stay in England until he obtains his second passport,” Olofinjana told a podcast.
Incidentally, Awoniyi was on target yesterday for Forest in a pre-season friendly against Championship side Blackburn Rovers.
