Maduka Okoye Earns Serie A Team of the Week Nod After Stellar Display

1 / 4

Super Eagles goalkeeper Maduka Okoye has been named in the Serie A Team of the Week for matchweek 29 despite Udinese’s 1-0 defeat to Juventus. Okoye turned in a heroic performance at the Bluenergy Stadium, making seven crucial saves and denying opportunities from top attackers. His agility and composure frustrated Juventus until Jeremie Boga’s 38th-minute strike decided the game. With Stanley Nwabali currently without a club and lacking match fitness, Okoye’s Serie A form strengthens his claim to start for Nigeria in the upcoming friendly against Jordan.
