Super Eagles-eligible star Tolu Arokodare has stated that he is thrilled about the opportunity to play with Ademola Lookman and Victor Osimhen.

Arokodare has been in good form for his club side K.R.C. Genk this season, with 13 goals in 20 league games.

Currently dominating the Jupiler Pro League, the striker recently scored two goals against Royal Antwerp. 

His performance has also caught the attention of Super Eagles star Osimhen, who tipped him to become great.

“Also, [Ademola] Lookman as well and everyone in general, they [Super Eagles of Nigeria] look like a close bunch of players, and it will be nice to get into that vibe and bond with them.”

In their attempt to maintain their advantage at the top of the Belgian league rankings, Genk will play Oud-Heverlee Leuven at the Cegeka Arena on Saturday. 

Arokodare, one of the top players in Thorsten Fink's team, will be looking to build on his previous performance.
