This Nigerian player has moved to Mainz
Liverpool striker Taiwo Awoniyi has joined German club Mainz on loan for the season.
He will remain with Jurgen Klopp’s former club for the duration of the 2019-20 campaign.
Awoniyi initially joined the Reds in August 2015 after starring for Nigeria at the U17 World Cup two years earlier.
The 21-year-old has since enjoyed loan stints with FSV Frankfurt, NEC Nijmegen, Royal Excel Mouscron (twice) and KAA Gent.
He scored 14 goals in all competitions last season during spells with both Gent and Mouscron.
Awoniyi signed a new long-term contract with Liverpool in the summer of 2018.
