Super Eagles and newly signed Wolverhampton Wanderers striker Tolu Arokodare is confident he'll shine in the English Premier League, Soccernet.ng reports.
The 24-year-old heads to the Molineux after two years in Belgium with KRC Genk. Arokodare scored 41 goals and provided eight assists in 113 games for Thorsten Fink's side, winning the Belgian Pro League golden boot last season.
The former FC Koln striker has now joined Wolves on a four-year deal with the option to extend for another year.
Tolu set to prove doubters wrong
While many imports from other leagues have struggled to hit the ground running due to the intensity of the English Premier League, Arokodare revealed the league suits his style of play.
“I think I'll fit in pretty good. The Premier League is full of physicality, high intensity, a lot of runs,” the former KRC Genk forward striker said in his first interview with the club.
“I think I'm that kind of player. I'm strong, I'm fast, and obviously, the first few weeks wouldn't be easy, but I think I'll fit in like I said earlier.
“I think it was time already [to make a move to the English Premier League], there were rumours of me going to different places, but this is where I wanted to be because I've played in France, in Germany and in Belgium, it was just here that was missing, so I'm just happy to be here.
“I can't wait to meet the guys, to meet the team, and the coach,” the Super Eagles striker concluded.
