Okoye Aims for Milestone Clean Sheets Against AC Milan
Maduka Okoye, the goalkeeper for Udinese, is set to target a personal milestone of achieving three consecutive clean sheets in Serie A when his team faces AC Milan. This would mark the first time in his top-flight career that he has accomplished this feat.
Okoye has been in strong form recently, contributing to Udinese's campaign with disciplined defensive displays. His last match saw him not concede a goal since J.
R. Mie Boga's strike led to a 1-0 defeat against Juventus on March 14.
Prior to this, Okoye had a successful run of clean sheets in February 2024. He has started all league matches in the 2023/24 season, conceding a total of 26 goals.
After a thigh injury sustained during training in Antalya, Turkey, Okoye has returned to full fitness. With seven matches remaining in the season, Udinese requires nine points to secure safety in Serie A, making the upcoming trip to Milan crucial.
