The exuberant celebration took place during the enthralling Premier League match between Nottingham Forest and Arsenal at the City Ground in Nottingham on May 20, 2023.
The two Nigerian internationals, who played pivotal roles in Nottingham Forest’s successful campaign, were instrumental in securing crucial goals that ultimately ensured the club’s safety in the Premier League.
As Forest gears up for the upcoming pre-season training in Spain, both Dennis and Awoniyi find themselves facing an unexpected hurdle.
The complex procedures of obtaining Schengen visas for the summer holidays have posed a temporary obstacle for talented players, preventing them from joining their teammates in Spain.
During the previous season, both players made noteworthy contributions to the club’s performance.
While Awoniyi had a particularly remarkable campaign, scoring crucial goals that significantly contributed to Forest’s top-flight survival, Dennis’ impact on the team was also highly regarded.
Manager Steve Cooper and the club’s management are diligently working to swiftly resolve the visa issue, with the hope of having the players available for Nottingham Forest’s upcoming pre-season friendly match against Levante on Saturday.
The anticipation is high among Forest’s supporters as they eagerly await the duo’s presence on the field once again, knowing the crucial roles they play in the team’s success.
