The extent of Awoniyi’s injury was discovered on Monday by the club’s medical staff and he was rushed to hospital for the operation.

There is no suggestion that the 27-year-old’s condition is life-threatening and it is understood the coma will help restrict his movement and regulate his heart rate.

According to reports in England, Awoniyi suffered a ruptured intestine in the collision.

Nigerians have taken to social media to wish the Super Eagles forward quick recovery.

As at the time of filing this report, Awoniyi is trending on X with most of the mentions containing goodwill messages for the former Liverpool forward.

Super Falcons captain, Rasheedat Ajibade, led the charge with prayers for Awoniyi.

She wrote on X: “Our hearts are heavy as we hold Taiwo Awoniyi in our prayers. Just days ago, he shared his light and strength with us on the Rash 4 Christ podcast. Now, as he fights in this difficult moment, we stand with him and his family in faith and hope.God is with you, Taiwo. You’re not alone. Please say a prayer for Taiwo Awoniyi and his family.”

Spanish club Cadiz also joined in sending messages of hope and quick recovery to Awoniyi.

The club wrote on X: “All the support and best wishes in the world to Taiwo Awoniyi. Awoniyi is in an induced coma following emergency surgery. Our thoughts are with him and his family and friends at this time.”

Toby writes wrote on X: “Taiwo Awoniyi has been in coma and my prayers goes out to him. He’s a proper nice guy and I hope he gets better soon.”

United DNA wrote on X: I wish Taiwo a speedy recovery.  All our prayers are with him. When he recovers, we need to talk about the so-called delayed flag. I do have questions: Do players behave differently (defending) when they suspect the attacker is offside? Why are linesmen reluctant to put up their flag in clear offside positions? How can the medical team of a PL club fail to identify potential problems in a player as injured as Taiwo?  For now, let’s pray the big man is healed.”
