In the latest transfer news, Udinese have completed the signing of Norwegian goalkeeper Egil Selvik.
He is set to arrive in the city tomorrow for his medical examination and to finalise his contract with the club.
According to Sky Sports, Udinese have been compelled to expedite their search for a new goalkeeper following the injury to Okoye.
With Okoye currently sidelined, the Friulian club quickly identified Selvik as the ideal candidate to fill the gap.
A representative from Udinese stated, “We needed to address our goalkeeping situation urgently, and Selvik fits the profile we were looking for.”
The urgency to replace Okoye has accelerated these plans, underscoring the club’s proactive approach in the transfer market this season.
Supporters are expected to welcome Selvik warmly upon his arrival, eager to see how he will bolster the team’s defensive line-up.
All eyes will be on the Norwegian as he looks to make an immediate impact in the Udinese squad.
