Arokodare sets goals for Ajax after successful debut
Nigerian striker Tolu Arokodare aims to win trophies with Ajax following an assist in the club's 2-0 win over ZEC Zwolle.
Tolu Arokodare has stated his intention to score goals and secure victories for Ajax following his debut appearance. The Super Eagles striker contributed an assist during the club's 2-0 opening win against ZEC Zwolle last weekend.
Arokodare began the match as a substitute and entered the game in the 73rd minute. He expressed satisfaction with his first official minutes and the assist he provided. While noting the team did not begin the match perfectly, he highlighted that the result met their objectives of winning and scoring twice.
The Nigerian forward remained composed regarding his lack of a starting role in the away fixture. He acknowledged that tactical requirements or physical considerations often take precedence over individual desires to start. Arokodare noted that he is prepared to fulfill his role regardless of whether he begins matches or comes off the bench.
Crucial to his move to the club was the influence of Ajax technical director Jordi Cruijff. Arokodare noted that Cruijff spoke to him about the specific team the club intends to construct. He recognized Ajax as the premier club in the Netherlands, despite the team's recent difficult seasons.
Looking ahead, the striker is focused on helping the club return to the top. He expressed a readiness to pursue the goal of winning every competition the club enters and becoming champions.
