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.”
