A product of Imperial Soccer Academy, the Under 17 World Cup winner was accompanied by his agent Goke Oshotoba and Nigeria international Seyi Olofinjana, the founder of the Odogbolu based grassroots team.
The youngster was dropped from Stephen Keshi's African Nations Championship squad.
“Club need not be large. I’m not saying he should not come to Kalmar, the association has all the attributes that fit where Taiwo can be developed further.
“It is easy for the agent, the academy and the player to say “I’m going to Liverpool or Manchester City,” but the key is a place where he can go on and take the next step,” says Olofinjana to Barometern.
Awoniyi notched up 4 goals in 7 matches at the FIFA Under 17’s staged in the United Arab Emirates last November.
