Super Eagles’ goalkeeper, Maduka Okoye has made a switch to Premier League side, Watford Football Club.

The announcement was made via a statement on the club’s website on Monday.

After Carl Ikeme, Okoye becomes the second Nigerian goalie to play in England while still representing the Super Eagles.

Recall that the shot-stopper just recorded his first clean sheet of the season for Sparta Rotterdam in the Eredivise on Saturday.

He was part of the Red-White Gladiators’ squad that travelled to and beat Willem II 3-0 at the Koning Willem II Stadion in the 12th round of Eredivise.

The first choice-goalkeeper of the Super Eagles therefore connects with compatriots Emmanuel Dennis, Oghenekaro Etebo and William Troost-Ekong at his new club.

The Club’s statement partly reads:  “Watford FC is pleased to announce that it has reached an agreement to sign highly-rated young goalkeeper Maduka Okoye, on a five-and-a-half year deal that will begin on January 1, 2022.”

“The Nigeria international joins the Hornets for an undisclosed fee from Eredivisie outfit Sparta Rotterdam, to where he will return on loan until the end of the 2021/22 campaign. ”

Okoye therefore reacted by a post on his Instagram: “I’ m overwhelmed to sign for @watfordfcofficial , to play in the Premier League is something I’ ve been dreaming about since I was a little boy I can’t wait to get started with the team upcoming season 2022/2023!”

“I wish the Club all the best for the rest of the season! See you soon!!”

Okoye will expectedly feature in Nigeria’s first eleven against Liberia in a World Cup qualifier.
