Genk scoring run thrills Durosinmi

Nigeria's Rafiu Durosinmi is relishing his recent goal-scoring form for Belgian club KRC Genk. The 23-year-old striker scored a penalty in Genk's 4-0 win against Beveren on Friday, extending his impressive run of four goals in four league matches since joining Genk. Durosinmi credits his teammates for their support, stating, "I feel very good, and above all I am very happy.

This is a good start." The Nigerian forward joined Genk from Italian side Pisa, replacing Hyun-Gyu Oh, who moved to Beşiktaş in February. Durosinmi had scored just one goal in 12 games for Pisa, but had previously netted 13 goals in 30 games for Viktoria Plzeň. His rapid rise has drawn comparisons to former Genk forwards Paul Onuachu and Tolu Arokodare, both of whom flourished during their time at the club.

Onuachu holds the record for most goals in a Belgian league season with 33, while Arokodare scored 41 goals in 113 games before moving to Wolves.
