Wolves eye move for Genk striker Tolu Arokodare | OneFootball

Wolverhampton Wanderers are weighing up a move for KRC Genk striker Tolu Arokodare, according to Sky Sports.

Vitor Pereira’s side have endured a tough start to the season, suffering defeats in their first two league matches.

However, they secured a confidence-boosting win over West Ham United in the League Cup second round.

The Midlands club face uncertainty over the future of Jorgen Strand Larsen, who is attracting interest from Newcastle United.

The Magpies have already had two bids turned down, but Wolves are preparing for the possibility of losing the Norwegian.

Nigerian striker is a top target

The 24-year-old forward has also been linked with Serie A champions Napoli, underlining his rising reputation in European football.

Arokodare enjoyed a standout 2024/25 season for Genk, finishing as the top scorer in the Belgian top flight.

He scored 17 goals in 30 league appearances and played a key role in Genk’s attacking success.

His form also earned him his first call-up to the Nigerian national team, marking an important milestone in his career.

Wolves may need to pay around £20 million to sign him, according to journalist Ben Jacobs.

Arokodare still has two years left on his current deal with Genk, which strengthens their position in negotiations.

The forward is known for his pace, power, and ability to create space inside the box.

He is capable of finishing with both feet and has the flexibility to move into wide areas when required.

While his finishing accuracy could improve, his versatility and determination make him a valuable option for any club looking to strengthen their attack.
