The full picture
Ajax technical director Jordi Cruyff has remained coy about triggering the option to buy Tolu Arokodare from Wolves, despite the Nigerian forward's strong performance with 10 goals in 15 games this season. Cruyff admitted that Ajax has an option to make Arokodare's loan move permanent. Arokodare has scored in the last three games for Ajax, and Cruyff is happy with his performance, highlighting his good mentality and team player qualities.
The decision to trigger the buy option may depend on Ajax securing a spot in the Champions League next season, according to Dutch journalist Johan Inan. Cruyff declined to comment further on Arokodare's future, stating 'I’m not allowed to say anything.' Ajax boss Michel urged Arokodare to improve his pressing game, and winger Nordin Amrabat noted concerns about Arokodare's fitness levels.
Wolves sanctioned a season-long loan for Arokodare and included an option-to-buy clause, which they will monitor closely. Arokodare has settled in well at Ajax, proving himself as a team player despite initial doubts following his previous season with Wolves. Cruyff praised Arokodare's mentality and performance, but remained cautious about discussing his future.

Source context
Ajax technical director Jordi Cruyff has remained coy over Wolves loanee Tolu Arokodare’s future with the Dutch outfit. Wolves sanctioned a season-long loan spell for Arokodare in the summer and Ajax agreed to an option buy clause in the deal. The 25-year-old Nigerian forward has been excellent in front of the opposition goal this season, finding the back of the net ten times in 15 games so far and a former Netherlands international has urged Ajax to sign him permanently. Add Inside Futbol as a preferred source on Google. However, Dutch journalist Johan Inan claimed that whether Ajax will be able to sign Arokodare will be dependent on whether they will be able to secure a spot in Europe’s premier tier cup competition, the Champions League, next season.
