Maduka Okoye arrived at the World Cup to defend Nigeria’s goal, but social media has other plans for him. 😅⚽

From the pre-match introduction before his first game, thousands of female football fans around the world began sharing photos and videos of the goalkeeper, describing him as “extremely handsome”. The result was immediate: his social media account exploded with hundreds of thousands of new followers in a matter of days, turning the keeper into one of the most searched names of the tournament — though not exactly because of his interventions between the posts. 🔥

Okoye thus joins a list of footballers who have shown that the World Cup is not followed only with eyes on the ball. While he focuses on stopping goals, the internet has already made its own decision. What do you think? 👀
