The Super Eagles duo of Taiwo Awoniyi and Ola Aina will now work under Nuno Espirito Santo as their new manager at Nottingham Forest.
The Premier League club has confirmed the former Wolves and Tottenham boss Nuno Espirito Santo as their new head coach on a two-and-a-half-year contract.
He replaces Steve Cooper at the Forest Ground.
Cooper was sacked on Tuesday with the team five points above the drop zone.
Nuno, who will take charge of Saturday’s match with Bournemouth, returns to English football following a two-year absence when he left Tottenham after an ill-fated four-month stay. He has been out of work since leaving Saudi Pro League club Al Ittihad in November.
The 49-year-old, who met his players and took training on Wednesday morning, will be expected to lead Forest away from danger in the second half of the campaign.
