Transfer News: Fulham set to unite Iwobi, Bassey with 6’4” Super Eagles striker

Fulham are reportedly plotting a move for Genk superstar Tolu Arokodare.

The 24-year-old Nigerian star was in top form last season, leading the Belgian Pro League with 17 goals and racking up 23 across all competitions. At 6’4”, Arokodare combines a commanding presence in the box with speed and sharp finishing that can trouble any defence.

His standout performances have caught the eye of big clubs like Manchester United and AC Milan, but sources close to the player have revealed a strong desire to move to the Premier League.

Fulham have already started talks with Arokodare’s team, especially after his recent switch to a new agency to help make a transfer to England happen.

The Cottagers already have a strong Nigerian connection, with Alex Iwobi and last season's Player of the Year, Calvin Bassey, meaning Arokodare should fit right in.

His dynamic displays in Belgium have made him one of Europe’s hottest young strikers, and Fulham are eager to add his firepower to their squad after an underwhelming end to what was a promising 2024/25 season.
