Nigerian international goalkeeper Maduka Okoye has caught the eye of a prominent Serie A team following an impressive season with Udinese.
The 24-year-old, who enjoyed a breakthrough year in Udine, made 21 appearances in Serie A, showcasing his abilities and solidifying his reputation.
His consistent performances have not gone unnoticed in the highly competitive Italian league.
According to Sky Sport Italia, Inter Milan are in advanced negotiations to sign Okoye. The Nerazzurri are reportedly willing to meet Udinese’s valuation of €12 million plus bonuses.
This acquisition would address Inter’s need for a younger, dynamic goalkeeper to serve as a reliable backup to their current first-choice, Yann Sommer.
Okoye’s career trajectory has been notable. Before joining Udinese, he had stints with Watford and Sparta Rotterdam.
His time in Italy has evidently marked a significant step in his development, attracting the attention of top-tier clubs.
Securing Okoye would be a strategic move for Inter, aiming to bolster their squad depth and planning for the future.
His agility, shot-stopping ability, and commanding presence in goal make him a valuable asset for any top club.
As the transfer discussions progress, fans and analysts alike will be keenly watching to see if Okoye makes the switch to the San Siro, potentially becoming a key figure in Inter’s quest for domestic and European success.
