Agreement made: Ebony Shoe winner Arokodare on the verge of leaving Racing Genk

2025 Ebony Shoe winner Tolu Arokodare is reportedly on the brink of leaving Belgian side Racing Genk, following a standout season in the Jupiler Pro League.

According to Het Laatste Nieuws, the Nigerian striker and Genk have reached a gentleman's agreement that will allow him to depart during the upcoming summer transfer window.

Arokodare's form has attracted serious interest from several European heavyweights, including Bundesliga teams Borussia Dortmund, Bayern Munich and Stuttgart, while multiple Premier League clubs are also said to be monitoring the 24-year-old closely.

Arokodare has enjoyed a breakout campaign, recording 29 goal involvements in 43 matches — his most productive season to date.

With 20 league goals, he currently sits second on the Belgian top-flight scoring chart, just one behind Sint-Truidense's Adriano Bertaccini, with two games remaining to potentially claim the Golden Boot.

The former Amiens, Valmiera and FC Cologne man has also begun to make his mark internationally, debuting for the Super Eagles in March during Nigeria's 2026 Fifa World Cup qualifiers against Rwanda and Zimbabwe.

Arokodare's current contract with Racing Genk runs until 2027, but with top European clubs circling, a big move appears imminent this summer.
