Nigeria junior international, Taiwo Awoniyi’s hope of joining Kalmar in the summer transfer window has suffered a blow as the Swedish Allsvenskan club is no longer interested in signing him.

Kalmar had explored the possibility of loaning the Nigeria U23 star for the remainder of the 2017 season, but their sporting director Thomas Andersson Borstam has revealed he will not be joining from Liverpool.

”No, he will not play in Kalmar. You may ask Liverpool where he will be loaned to, but it will not be Kalmar FF,” Borstam told 24Kalmar.se.

Awoniyi is on the lookout for a new club before the summer transfer window closes for business because he is not eligible for a UK work permit.

The 19-year-old previously had loan stints at FSV Frankfurt and NEC.
