1 / 2

Former Udinese shot-stopper Gigi Turci says Super Eagles keeper Maduka Okoye must refine his technique to cement his place. He praised Okoye’s physical presence but warned the Italian side needs a reliable backup. Okoye returned to Udinese for pre-season after starring as first choice last season. The 26-year-old produced several clean sheets and made crucial saves that secured vital Serie A points. Turci’s comments, reported by local media, add pressure on Okoye to prove himself before the new campaign. With links to Besiktas and Juventus emerging, the Nigerian international will be keen to address these technical concerns.
