Wolves striker Tolu Arokodare rejects Trabzonspor move, eyes top-five league

Wolves striker Tolu Arokodare has made it clear he will not consider a move to Turkish side Trabzonspor this summer, according to DAILY POST. The 25‑year‑old Nigeria international, who scored valuable goals for Wolves before their relegation from the Premier League last season, prefers a transfer to one of Europe’s top‑five leagues. Trabzonspor have already tabled an official bid for the forward, but Arokodare’s preference is to stay in a higher‑profile competition. Wolves turned down a loan offer from Serie A side Fiorentina last week because the offer did not meet the club’s valuation of the player. With Wolves now competing in the Championship, Arokodare’s future is uncertain; a move to a top‑five league would likely mean a permanent transfer, while staying could see him fight for a starting place in the second tier. His decision could influence both his international prospects with Nigeria and Wolves’ rebuilding plans after relegation. Will Wolves hold out for a fee that matches their valuation, or will they lower their asking price to secure a deal before the transfer window closes?
