Maduka Okoye Arrives in Abuja Ahead of Super Eagles’ AFCON 2027 Qualifiers

Super Eagles goalkeeper Maduka Okoye has arrived in Abuja ahead of Nigeria’s AFCON 2027 qualifying matches against Madagascar and Guinea-Bissau. Okoye’s arrival follows criticism over his appearance at Milan Fashion Week, where he was seen with rapper Cardi B after the national team camp had opened. Reports said he had permission to spend an extra day away on Udinese marketing duties. The 27-year-old is now expected to compete for a starting place as Nigeria begin their qualifying campaign. Head coach Eric Chelle must decide who starts in goal against Madagascar, with Okoye among the leading contenders.
