Seeing Tolu Arokodare on two Goal of the Month shortlists for October is a clear sign say we no dey waste talent. The striker, on loan from Wolves, has already bagged four goals in six games, including a slick control‑and‑finish against Atalanta and a towering header versus AZ. Those moments prove he can adapt to European pressure and still deliver the kind of flair we love back home. But the real question is whether this buzz will translate into a permanent move to Ajax or a recall to the Super Eagles. If Ajax seal a deal, we get a Nigerian forward thriving in a top league, raising our profile and inspiring the next crop. If he returns to England, the momentum might stall, and the Nigerian fanbase loses a potential star. The competition for the award is stiff – fellow nominee Ouazane also has two nods – so Arokodare must keep the consistency. In the meantime, we as fans should push the local clubs to create pathways that let our lads shine abroad without being stuck in loan limbo. Let’s celebrate the nominations, but also demand a clear plan for his future, lest we watch another talent fade.
