Maduka Okoye Aims for Three Straight Clean Sheets
Maduka Okoye, the Nigerian international goalkeeper, targets achieving three consecutive clean sheets for the first time in his Serie A career as he prepares to face AC Milan. Okoye's recent impressive form includes a clean sheet against Como, following a previous match where he conceded a goal to J.
R. Mie Boga during Udinese's 1-0 defeat to Juventus at Bluenergi Stadium on March 14.
Prior to this, Okoye had not recorded back-to-back clean sheets in Italy's top flight since February 2024. He has started in 23 matches during the 2023-24 season, conceding a total of 26 goals.
Okoye was briefly withdrawn from the Super Eagles squad for a friendly against Jordan on March 31 due to a thigh injury sustained during training in Antalya, Turkey. With seven matches remaining in the 2025-2026 season, Udinese requires nine points to guarantee safety.
