Super Eagles striker Tolu Arokodare is attracting strong interest from several top European clubs following a standout season with Belgian side Genk.
The 23-year-old forward scored 23 goals and provided seven assists in 45 appearances last season, earning a national team call-up and clinching the prestigious Ebony Shoe award. His market value has soared to €18 million, with Manchester United, Fulham, Atalanta, and Benfica reportedly monitoring his situation.

Though no formal bids have emerged, Genk appear to be bracing for his departure. The club confirmed the €2.2 million signing of Cameroonian striker Aaron Bibout from Sweden’s Vasteras SK on Wednesday—a 6ft 4 forward with a similar profile.
Bibout’s arrival signals Genk’s readiness to negotiate, though the Belgian side is expected to demand up to €25 million for Arokodare, who remains under contract until 2027.
