Super Eagles goalkeeper Maduka Okoye has been making the news round over his marital issues.
This 25-year-old Udinese was in a relationship for 4 years with Dutch model Jelicia Westhoff, and he was reported to be betrayed by her in public.

In a series of Instagram stories, Westhoff, 30, accused Okoye of showing no respect for their relationship or family. She wrote, “Maduka Okoye.
You have no respect for the family you decided to create. And I am done with you. I repeat, I am done with you.”

Not About Infidelity
Interestingly, as Westhoff also pointed out, there were suspicions about cheating, but this was not the true cause of the divorce.
However, she was quick to note that what that man did was a sign of disrespect. ‘This is not about another woman.’ It only highlights the issue of the dwindling level of respect men are extending to their wives, who are also the mothers of their children.”

This increases pressure on Okoye who previously admitted to challenging Kelechi Nwabali for the Super Eagles No.1 position, especially since he was to start in Udinese’s essential Serie A match against Inter Milan champions.
Coming back to the match after losing the previous 3-1 Copa Italia match against Salernitana, Okoye’s presence was a disappointment as he conceded two goals in the first half with Udinese 2-1 down.
