Borussia Dortmund is reportedly at the forefront of the competition to sign Nigerian striker Toluwalase Arokodare, with Fenerbahçe and VfB Stuttgart also in the mix.
The 24-year-old has been making waves in the Belgian Pro League with KRC Genk, scoring 23 goals and providing five assists in 45 games across all club competitions. His impressive form earned him the Belgian Pro League Golden Shoe award.
Arokodare’s goalscoring prowess has attracted the attention of several top European clubs. Fenerbahçe, in particular, is looking to strengthen its squad ahead of the next season to compete with Galatasaray, who clinched the league title last season.

The Turkish giants are under pressure from their supporters to establish a strong rivalry against other teams in the league.
They want to make a marquee signing, similar to what Okan Buruk’s side did with the signature of Leroy Sane, although they still plan on bringing Victor Osimhen to Rams Park permanently.
Arokodare stands at 1.97m tall, with a strong physique and athleticism that makes him a typical profile of a Super Lig striker.
He is skilled with both feet, making him a versatile and potent goal-scorer. Arokodare has gained valuable experience playing in European competitions, which could be an asset for any club looking to sign him.
Despite his impressive form, it’s unclear if Arokodare would be interested in joining Fenerbahçe.
