Of course, I still have goals in my career, but currently my head is complete at Udinese. <\/p>\n \u201cI enjoy it without thinking too much about the future. In football things can change quickly and if it happens, I know that the club is well positioned and I can still earn him a nice replacement. <\/p>\n \u201cBut until then, I\u2019m 100 percent Udinese professional.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n According to the report, the agent of the 21-cap Super Eagles goalie has been contacted by clubs from all the top 4 leagues, including the Bundesliga, and top teams from the Turkish S\u00fcper Lig, but Okoye isn’t flattered.<\/p>\n \u201cIt is a good push for me as a person to know that you are in demand and that one or the other club is on the list. <\/p>\n \u201cHowever, I leave this to my advisors, where I am in outstanding hands with Gabriele Giuffrida and Co. That\u2019s their part and I have absolute confidence in their work,\u201d the former Dusseldorf goalie concluded.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n Following his displays against Poland and Portugal earlier this month, Maduka Okoye has made a strong claim to be Nigeria’s starting goalkeeper when the AFCON 2027 qualifiers kick off in September. <\/p>\n The Super Eagles have been drawn into Group L alongside Tanzania, Madagascar, and Guinea-Bissau.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n![\"Soccer](\"https:\/\/soccernet.ng\/thumbor\/LCMDs4kVcx1HsPvq6cAnphaQJMo=\/4126x2751\/smart\/https%3A%2F%2Fmedia.soccernet.ng%2Fmain%2F2026%2F06%2Fimago1078173894.jpg\")
