Nigerian striker Tolu Arokodare is poised to join Wolverhampton Wanderers in a deal worth €27 million, making him the most expensive outgoing in KRC Genk's history, Nigeriasoccernet.com reports.
The 24-year-old will undergo medical tests on Saturday before finalizing his transfer to the Premier League club.
Sander Berge's €25 million move to Sheffield United in 2020 holds the most expensive transfer before now.
- *Arokodare is expected to bolster Wolves' attacking options, having scored 40 goals in 112 appearances for Genk since joining in 2023
Arokodare's impressive form last season, where he emerged as the top scorer in the Belgian Pro League with 21 goals, has caught the attention of several top clubs.
Wolves moved swiftly to secure his signature, outmaneuvering interest from European giants AC Milan and Napoli.
The transfer is expected to be finalized soon, with Arokodare set to sign a five-year contract with Wolves.
