Arokodare Omitted as Wolves Release Pre-Season Squad Amid Transfer Talk

Super Eagles striker Tolu Arokodare has been left out of Wolverhampton Wanderers’ pre-season squad, sparking growing speculation about where the Nigerian forward’s career could head next.

Transfer specialist Fabrizio Romano has claimed that the player was left out of the Premier League club’s training programme.

Fiorentina, meanwhile, are continuing discussions with Wolves after their opening offer was turned down, while Turkish outfit Trabzonspor have also been linked with an approach for the striker.

Even so, further reports suggest Arokodare is not particularly interested in a switch to the Turkish side.
