Reports indicate that Fulham is actively pursuing 24-year-old Nigerian forward Tolu Arokodare from KRC Genk during the upcoming summer transfer window. Reputable Belgian journalist Sacha Tavolieri confirms Fulham’s interest in the player.

The London club aims to bolster its attacking options, and Arokodare, a center-forward, has emerged as a key target. However, Fulham faces competition from other Premier League clubs that have also expressed interest in Arokodare to KRC Genk. Manchester United is reportedly among those teams.

Arokodare’s performance has made him a highly sought-after player, with numerous Premier League teams vying for his signature.
