Arokodare has affection for the European country, having spent two years in Belgium with KRC Genk.
“My years at KRC Genk have given me a bit of Belgian blood, so I hope they’ll do well. I also have a lot of friends at the Red Devils: Zeno (Debast), Maarten (Vandevoordt), Openda, Onana…,” he told Het Nieuwsblad.
Arokodare also said he hopes some of his former teammates at Genk will make the Belgium World Cup squad.
“Hopefully, Bryan (Heynen) and Matte (Smets) will also make the World Cup squad,” he added.
