Serie A: Okoye happy to share same dressing room with Sanchez



Nigeria goalkeeper, Maduka Okoye has said he is happy with the chance to train with former Arsenal and Barcelona star, Alexis Sanchez.

Sanchez rejoined Serie A club, Udinese for a second stint this summer.

The Chilean signed a two-year contract with the Zebras.

The winger first played for Udinese between 2007 and 2011.

Okoye said having Sanchez as a teammate is unbelievable.

“I remember when he walked into the changing room the first time, I was sitting on my chair, I sat right at the beginning,” Okoye told Siempre Inter.

“So I looked up, stood right up and shook his hand like I mean it is Alexis Sanchez. He is a legend of the game, not just a club legend at Udinese, but in the whole game. It’s a privilege and I’m proud to be able to work with a legend like Alexis Sanchez.”
