Super Eagles and Udinese goalkeeper Maduka Okoye has insisted that he always feels honoured to represent Nigeria, BSNSports.com.ng reports.

After a long time of absence, Okoye returned to the Super Eagles lineup against the Amavubi of Rwanda.

Despite the defeat, Okoye still believes it is a big honour for him to put on the jersey. 

"Despite the result, I’m more than happy and grateful to have played in this jersey again! It has always been, it is, and it will forever be an honour to represent Nigeria", he said.

Okoye is expected to be in goal for the Italian Serie A side when the league resumes this weekend.
