Okoye Set for Udinese's Coppa Italia Clash Against Padova
Udinese head coach Kosta Runjaic announced that goalkeeper Maduka Okoye is available for the club's Coppa Italia match against Padova. Okoye had previously sustained a shoulder injury during the Zebras' pre-season training in Lienz, Austria, which initially sidelined him for the start of the new season.
However, he has made a recovery and is now in contention to play against Padova. Runjaic stated, "Okoye and Unai Gomez are available," while also mentioning that Goglichidze is being evaluated after a minor training knock.
He confirmed that everyone else would be available except for Zanoli and Chakvetadze. Last season, the 26-year-old Okoye was a standout performer for Udinese, making 30 league appearances, providing one assist, and achieving 10 clean sheets.
