It’s a two year loan deal with the option to buy
It’s been long since I heard from Arokodare. He’s the compared to Oshimen and AT a time where we were hoping to hear more from him , he went off the radar. I’m eager to see him launch out into the international scene and one day be invited to the national team. I hope he makes the very best of the opportunities given and he rises to the top
He moved from Latvia!!! To the german top division last year. A big leap of standards for any player. He couldn’t cope obviously and ended up not scoring any goal. He probably should have tried the german second division first.
Comparing him to any striker in the super eagles is a big joke. He has a long way to go before even being considered for an invitation.
This move to the french second division looks good, he can learn a lot by playing in the lower leagues before advancing to the big leagues.
Wishing him all the best.
AROKODARE would have finished up the space on the jersey, so they opted for TOLU, lol.
Dude has a lot of potential. Just needs a little polishing. This move will do him a lot of good.
