In the second round of the African Cup of Nations group stage, Nigeria defeated Sudan 3-1 and then advanced to advance with a record of two wins. Looking back at this game, Liverpool's abandonment of Avoniyi was extremely good. Having created scoring opportunities many times in the game, he scored a goal for Nigeria to extend the lead. Seeing this, Liverpool fans sighed: such a good striker was actually sold by Uncle Scum for 6.5 million! How nice it would be to stay and give Salah them a substitute!
It all started last summer. Avoni, whose joint lease with Bundesliga side Berlin expired, returned to Liverpool. For him, this return is extraordinary. This is so because Awonyi joined Liverpool as early as 2015. Unfortunately, because he did not have a labour certificate, he was never able to play for Liverpool. After six years of hard work, he finally got his dream labor certification this summer. Coupled with his outstanding performances in the Bundesliga, Avoniyi saw hope for klopp's promotion.
Unfortunately, it backfired. Rao is Klopp's decision to take advantage of the summer window to sell Origi and Shaqiri, and does not intend to leave Avonii as a rotation of the trident. In contrast, he put Avonii on the same list of sellers. Seeing this, the management of the Berlin Union took a decisive shot. After negotiations between the two clubs, Liverpool eventually sold Averni to Union Berlin for 6.5 million euros. It is worth mentioning that this seemingly "shabby" transfer fee has made Avoniyi the team history king of Berlin United.
In hindsight, the "heavy investment" of the Berlin Union was quite reliable, and Avoni, who officially joined, performed even better. As the starting striker, he has repeatedly completed the scoring responsibility for the team. According to statistics, Awonyi has scored nine Bundesliga goals so far this season, ranking fifth in the league top scorer list. Not only that, but he was also crowned the top scorer of the Bundesliga team of the Berlin Union team. The media, including Bild, see Avoniyi as one of the most successful transfer deals in the Bundesliga this season.
Thanks to his excellent performances in the Bundesliga, Avoniyi was named to Nigeria's Africa Cup of Nations squad. In the African Cup of Nations group stage against Sudan in this round, he was given a chance to start. Facing the underweight Sultan, Awonii seized the opportunity to score a goal to extend Nigeria's lead. Sultan, who was ready to fight for a draw, became demoralized because of this goal. So Nigeria once again seized the opportunity to score a goal, completely killing the suspense of the game. After the match, Avoni, who scored on goal, received the second highest rating of the team at 7.3.
Seeing this, Liverpool fans are mixed. The good news is that his own youngster has performed well after leaving the team and has become a rising star. The worry is that such a good seedling was actually sold, and it only sold for 6.5 million euros. Referring to Averni's current hot performance, it is simply the price of cabbage. I have to say that the poisonous Klopp also has a time to look away! If you still stay in Liverpool, there is every hope of cultivating as a successor to the Trident!
