Super Eagles coach, Gernot Rohr has confirmed the addition of 18-year-old Fortuna Dusseldorf goalkeeper, Maduka Okoye to the options available to him ahead of the 2018 World Cup.
Nigeria are short of options in the goalkeeping department of the team, no thanks to health issues with Carl Ikeme
Rohr who is in Russia for today’s World Cup draw, said that he will add Okoye to his pool of players next year when they play their friendly games. “There’s another goalkeeper we have in our sight now. He plays with Fortuna Dusseldorf in Germany, Maduka Okoye, born in Germany but has agreed to play for Nigeria “, Rohr said. “We will look at him in the coming games to see if he will be able to push for a spot in the team we are preparing for the World Cup”.
