KRC Genk Head of Football Dimitri De Condé has ruled out the possibility of the club partying ways with any of their star players including Nigerian striker Tolu Arokodare in the January transfer window.
[Arokodare has recently been linked with Fulham](https://sportwitness.co.uk/i-read-the-rumours-striker-aware-hes-been-linked-to-fulham-this-week-pl-move-sounds-aim/) who want to bolster their attacking department in the mid-season transfer window.
The Cottagers have Raúl Jiménez and Rodrigo Muniz as options in the center forward department but are still interested in getting another striker, hence the reported interest in Arokodare.
Genk grabbed his services from Amiens in January 2023, after the departure of Super Eagles forward Paul Onuachu to Southampton.
He struggled with injuries for the rest of the campaign but was able to put his early setback aside to help the Blue-White advance to the Jupiler Pro League play-offs last season, scoring 12 goals.
The 24-year-old has taken a huge leap in his form this campaign, notching nine goals in 15 games in the Belgian top-flight which must have caught the interest of Fulham.
Speaking to [TVL Sportcafé via voetbalnieuws](https://www.voetbalnieuws.be/news/807959/karlsson-en-nieuwe-verdediger-de-conde-schept-duidelijkheid), De Condé revealed that Genk have no intention of letting their star striker leave in January.
"Tolu is not allowed to leave. He is also very grateful to our trainer and will not leave Fink and Genk just like that," De Condé said.
Arokodare is one goal adrift of Kasper Dolberg who is the Jupiler Pro-League leading top-scorer with 10 goals for RSC Anderlecht.
