Genoa ‘join’ Ajax in race for Wolves striker Arokodare | OneFootball

Genoa have joined Ajax in the race to sign Wolverhampton Wanderers striker Tolu Arokodare, with the Nigerian forward emerging as an option for the Serie A club.

FirenzeViola.it reports that the Rossoblù have moved after Fiorentina previously explored a deal for the striker.

Fiorentina were said to be close before using their final non-EU slot on Oulai, forcing them to step away. Arokodare could still head to Italy, with Genoa looking to capitalise.

The forward’s Wolves future remains uncertain amid reports of tension with the club, including claims he has not trained with the first team.

Ajax have tracked him for some time and the 25-year-old’s physical profile and attacking attributes have drawn interest, with several clubs monitoring the situation.

Genoa are seeking attacking reinforcements and view the Nigeria international as a potential addition. They may need to act quickly to fend off Ajax.
