EPL: Arokodare cleared to face Aston Villa after racist attack
Wolves Striker Tolu Arokodare Cleared to Play Against Aston Villa
Wolverhampton Wanderers forward Tolu Arokodare is set to compete against Aston Villa in tonight’s Premier League match at Molineux Stadium. This development comes after the Nigeria international received psychological clearance from the club, following an incident of online racial abuse.
Arokodare faced criticism last weekend after missing a penalty during Wolves’ 1-0 defeat to Crystal Palace. In the wake of the incident, he gained support from his teammates and coaching staff, who offered both individual and collective encouragement throughout the week.
Rob Edwards, the head coach, emphasized the importance of team solidarity in supporting Arokodare. The 25-year-old joined Wolves from Belgian club KRC Genk last summer and has netted two goals in 18 appearances for the team.
