Ahead of teaming up with the senior national team of Nigeria Fortuna Dusseldorf II goalkeeper Maduka Okoye is still searching for his first clean sheet of the season after conceding yet again, Owngoalnigeria.com reports.

Okoye was once again between the sticks against Fortuna Koln ‎and just like it has been in previous games against Borussia Monchengladbach II, Borussia Dortmund II, VfB Homberg and Schalke 04 II, the five games he has kept goal so far this season.

However, the issue of the team goes beyond their goalkeeper as since the start of the season they have only kept one clean sheet and that came in the game against TuS Haltern on the 17th of August when Okoye was still out injured.

His lack of clean sheet this season has however not stopped him from earning his second straight call up to the senior national team of Nigeria as he is in the squad for the friendly game against Brazil on the 13th of October.

Coach of the Nigerian team Gernot Rohr believe the 20‎ year old will no doubt come good for Nigeria in the future hence his decision to have him in his squad to help him get used to the environment. He is presently third choice behind Ikechukwu Ezenwa and Francis Uzoho respectively.
