It is heartbreak for Nigerian ladies after it emerged that Super Eagles goalkeeper Maduka Okoye is in a relationship. Okoye is the darling of many Nigerian ladies for his fine looks.&nbsp;

<h3>Okoye dashes the hopes of Nigerian ladies </h3>

The 22-year-old caught ladies' attention at the<a href="http://pulse.ng/sports/other-sports/afcon-2021-ladies-man-maduka-okoye-trends-following-super-eagles-opening-game-victory/9zb6gzx"> 2021 Africa Cup of Nations</a>. Even when he was blamed for Nigeria's exit from the competition, Okoye still had the backing of the ladies.

However, any lady's hope of getting into a relationship with the Nigerian has been dashed, at least for now, after the goalkeeper's girlfriend shared their cute pictures in matching outfits.&nbsp;

Okoye's girlfriend, whose Instagram handle is&nbsp;<a href="https://www.instagram.com/jelicia.westhoff/">jelicia.westhoff</a>, posted a picture of herself with Okoye in beautiful African prints.

The latest development is a big blow for all Nigerian ladies who have been crushing on Okoye.&nbsp;

Okoye has been Nigeria's goalkeeper since 2019, making his debut for the Super Eagles in a 1-1 friendly against Brazil. Since then, he has gone on to establish himself as the number one goalkepeer.&nbsp;

However, he came under fire after Nigeria crashed out at the 2021 AFCON. Okoye is currently not with the team preparing to play Mexico and Ecuador in two international friendlies.&nbsp;

The new-Watford goalkeeper pulled out of the team for the friendly games and 2023 Africa Cup of Nations Qualifiers to undergo a lingering shoulder injury.&nbsp;
