Super Eagles goalkeeper Maduka Okoye has suffered a shoulder injury that is expected to rule him out of the start of the new Serie A season.
Softfootball understands the 26‑year‑old is expected to miss Udinese’s opening fixtures of the 2026/27 campaign, dealing a major blow to both the club and the Nigerian shot‑stopper ahead of the new season.
Ealier, Maduka Okoye linked up with Cameroon international and Manchester United goalkeeper Andre Onana, who is currently on loan at Trabzonspor.
Both goalkeepers shared a warm embrace and exchanged a few words before Udinese faced Trabzonspor in a pre‑season friendly as part of their preparations for the new season.
