Wolverhampton Wanderers' Tolu Arokodare is closing in on a loan move to Turkish Super Lig club Trabzonspor.
What happened?
The 25-year-old striker is expected in Turkey next week to finalize the move. Wolves want Trabzonspor to pay Arokodare's entire €3.7 million annual salary.
Why it matters for Wolverhampton Wanderers
Trabzonspor are desperate to bring in a new striker following Felipe Augusto's departure to Zenit. This transfer deal could be a significant opportunity for Arokodare, who scored three goals and registered one assist in 33 league appearances for Wolves last season.
What comes next?
Arokodare joined Wolves from Belgian Pro League club KRC Genk last summer. The striker's move to Trabzonspor is likely to be finalized soon, with the Turkish club keen to secure his services. There is also uncertainty surrounding the future of Arokodare's international teammate, Paul Onuachu, who has been linked with a move to Saudi Arabia Professional League outfit, Al Ahli.
