Tolu Arokodare has been described as a rockstar in Amsterdam by the Dutch media. The Nigerian striker, who played for KRC Genk between 2023 and 2025, understands why he has gained such popularity. "Ask anyone who knows me what my greatest characteristic is, and they'll say I have a big heart," he said. Arokodare believes that his kind nature is the reason behind his success in the city.
