Transfer: Arokodare closes in on Wolves move

Nigeria forward Tolu Arokodare is closing in on a move to Premier League club Wolverhampton Wanderers.

According to Belgian news outlet HLN, Wolves are preparing a €25m offer for the Genk striker.

The 24-year-old was the top scorer in the Belgian Pro League last season.

Arokodare, who cost Genk €5m two years ago, has also been linked with AC Milan and Napoli.

Wolves are targeting him as a replacement for Jørgen Strand-Larsen, who is expected to complete a move to Newcastle United before the end of the transfer window.

Arokodare has been left out of Genk’s squad for Thursday’s UEFA Europa Conference League fixture against Bulgarian side Lezh Poznan to minimise any risks.
