Genoa joins Fiorentina chase for Wolves striker Tolu Arokodare

Genoa have joined Fiorentina in the race to sign Wolverhampton Wanderers striker Tolu Arokodare, according to DAILY POST citing Italian newspaper Il Secolo XIX. The 25-year-old Nigeria international, who moved from KRC Genk to Wolves last summer, scored six goals across all competitions as Wolves suffered Premier League relegation.

Wolves are open to selling Arokodare on their own terms, while Fiorentina previously pursued a loan with purchase option. Genoa’s interest adds competition for his signature, potentially influencing his next club and Wolves’ transfer revenue. For Nigerian fans following the Super Eagles’ attacking options, his move to Serie A could affect his national team prospects and exposure.

Arokodare’s six-goal tally last season came amid Wolves’ relegation battle; his performance may attract Serie A clubs seeking attacking depth. With both Genoa and Fiorentina evaluating options, the striker’s decision could shape his career trajectory and the Serie A striking landscape. Will this transfer saga push Arokodare toward a move to Italy, and how might his destination impact his role with the Super Eagles ahead of upcoming qualifiers?
