He received treatment on the pitch and he was able to continue but was clearly struggling before managing to see off the game.

Nottingham Forest have now confirmed in a statement on Monday that Awoniyi has undergone an urgent surgery.

The statement read: “The club can confirm Taiwo Awoniyi has undergone urgent surgery following an abdominal injury sustained during Sunday’s match against Leicester City.

“Everyone at Nottingham Forest sends their best wishes to Taiwo. The club will provide further updates when appropriate.”

Similarly, The club owner, Evangelos Marinakis clarified that he stormed on to the pitch after the encounter to express his frustration at the way Awoniyi’s injury was handled while wishing him quick recovery.

He said: “Everybody – coaching staff, players, supporters and including myself – we were frustrated around the injury of Taiwo and the medical staff’s misjudgement on Taiwo’s ability to continue the game.

“This is natural, this is a demonstration of the passion we feel for our club.”

Awoniyi has been reduced to a bit-part role this season following the impressive form of Chris Wood this season in the Premier League.

The 27-year-old has scored just one goal in 26 appearances in the Premier League this season.

The draw against Leicester City was a dent to Nottingham Forest’s Champions League hopes.

Forest are assured of at least a place in the UEFA Conference League, which will see them play European football for the first time since 1995-96.
