Tolu Arokodare - Super Eagles star hits ground running with debut goal for new club Ajax

The Super Eagles star attacker moved to Amsterdam on a one-season loan deal from Wolverhampton Wanderers after a difficult season in the Premier League.

The agreement, which runs through June 2027, includes an optional purchase clause valued at approximately €22 million (£17 million).

The 25-year-old departed the Premier League after just a season following an acrimonious fallout with Wolves.

Tolu got his Ajax debut to a good start following his first pre-season appearance against Volendam for his new club.

The Nigerian international, who made his loan move to revive his career, started the game from the bench.

With Ajax leading 2-0 in the second half, Arokodare was substituted in for Marcos Leonardo in the 71st minute.

The striker made his presence known 17 minutes after he was brought on, scoring in the 88th minute to get his team 3-1 up.

A good cross into the box from the right-hand side was not dealt with by the goalkeeper, with the ball coming towards the path of the striker.

He decently brought the ball down in the box despite being in the midst of two defenders to poke the ball home, as seen in the video shared by Ajax on X.

With his goal, he will look to continue building his confidence and push to get ready for the new season.
