Udinese head coach Kosta Runjaic has announced that Nigerian goalkeeper Maduka Okoye is fit to play in the club's upcoming Coppa Italia match against Padova, according to the DAILY POST.

Runjaic confirmed that Okoye and fellow goalkeeper Unai Gomez are available for selection. However, midfielder Goglichidze is undergoing evaluation following a minor incident in training and will not be available for the night's game. The 26-year-old Okoye was a standout performer for Udinese during the previous season, making 30 league appearances and contributing with one assist, while also recording 10 clean sheets.
