Renowned transfer expert Fabrizio Romano confirmed the move via social media, stating the striker’s medical is scheduled for Saturday and that personal terms between player and club are in place.
Editorial
We see this as a promising step for both club and player. For Wolves, securing Arokodare represents a long-term response to attacking frailties. His goal-scoring pedigree in Belgium promises a fresh spark at Molineux.
We consider Arokodare’s career trajectory noteworthy. After topping the scoring charts at Genk and earning the Ebony Shoe, he has demonstrated both consistency and growth—traits that suggest he is ready for the Premier League spotlight.
We expect the medical to be more than a formality it will determine if this transfer becomes a landmark for Wolves’ striking revival or a market gamble. Judging by form and intent, the signs point to a calculated and addition.
