Super Eagles and Udinese FC goalkeeper Maduka Okoye has expressed confidence in his abilities ahead of team hostilities next season in the Italian Serie A.
Okoye who blew his trumpet in a recent chat with a sports media outlet said that the key to staying on top is to have as many good days as possible and fewer mistakes.
The mulatto soccer star also stated that he is glad to have Sergio Macron as his goalkeeping coach because he goes into every little detail with him during training.
“As soon as I step on the pitch, I am always confident. But, of course, there are good and bad days. The art is to have as many good days as possible and fewer mistakes. Therefore, I am glad to have Sergio Macron as my goalkeeping coach,” Okoye told Tribal Football.

“My skill set after one year working under him is already much wider, he’s going into every little detail of my goalkeeping and makes sure that there’s improvement every day.”
Okoye who was born to a Nigerian father and a German mother informed that it has always been his dream to play for the Super Eagles and thanked former Eagles coach Gernot Rohr for making it possible.
“Yes, it has always been Nigeria for me, a childhood dream playing for the Super Eagles. Yes, Lutz played a big part in that… he was in good contact with Nigeria’s former coach Gernot Rohr; he opened that door for me,” Okoye added.
“With Rohr, I had a fantastic coach in my early years as a Super Eagle, I’ll be forever grateful for the opportunities he gave me in that time!”
