Super Eagles shot-stopper Maduka Okoye has signed a contract extension with Serie A outfit with Udinese until 2028 as officially confirmed by the club.
Udinese has extended the contract of one of their most reliable players. Maduka, who joined the club in the summer of 2023, since joining, he has quickly established himself as a key figure in the team. His impressive performances throughout the past season have solidified his status as one of the top goalkeepers in the league. Both Maduka and Udinese are delighted to continue their partnership with renewed vigor and ambition.
“His renewal testifies to his desire, of him and of the Club, to continue the journey together with renewed enthusiasm and ambitions.”
