Nigerian striker Tolu Arokodare has concluded the first half of the 2024/25 Belgian Jupiler League season as the top scorer with 13 goals, surpassing Anderlecht’s Kasper Dolberg by a single goal.
Arokodare netted a brace in Genk’s 2-2 away draw against Royale Antwerp in their final match of 2024. These goals elevate his season tally to 13 goals and 4 assists in 20 league appearances.
Dolberg, his closest rival, failed to score in Anderlecht’s surprising 3-2 home defeat against 9th-placed Dender. Dolberg currently stands at 12 goals and 1 assist in 19 league games. Sint-Truiden’s Adriano Bertaccini occupies third place with 11 goals in 7 league games.
Arokodare has consistently demonstrated exceptional form in Belgium this season, reflected in his significant goal contributions. He will strive to guide Genk to their first domestic league title since the 2018/19 season.
His outstanding performance positions him as a strong contender for the 2024 Belgian League Golden Shoe Award. This prestigious award is bestowed annually in Belgium to the most exceptional footballer in the Belgian Pro League.
Arokodare will aim to maintain his impressive performance in the upcoming year.
