The 23-year-old Watford shot-stopper was rumoured to have ended his things with his Amsterdam-based girlfriend Jelicia Westhoff, after the pair seemingly unfollowed each other on social media

However, those rumours seemed have been proven as false after Okoye’s girlfriend re-uploaded a picture of herself and her man on her official Instagram page, in response to the rumours a few days.

But Jelicia eventually ended up deleting the picture once more as well as most of her pictures and posts on her Instagram handle with the exception of a quoted post that reads: 'I'm not for everybody and that’s how I like to be’.

Okoye is understood to be in a relationship with an Amsterdam-based lady known as Jelicia Westhoff. 

Jelicia came to the limelight after she posted a picture of herself with Okoye in beautiful African prints following Super Eagles' disappointing exit at the African showpiece earlier this year.

 To clear any doubts, she added a caption to the now-deleted post which read: "Whatever our souls are made of, his and mine are the same."

 She was also firmly behind Okoye after he received public backlash following Nigeria's 1-0 defeat against Tunisia after failing to stop a long-range shot that sent the Super Eagles out of the tournament.

 Okoye has been Nigeria's goalkeeper since 2019, making his debut for the Super Eagles in a 1-1 friendly against Brazil.

However, he came under fire after Nigeria crashed out at the 2021 AFCON.

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

He was also absent as Nigeria failed to qualify for the 2022 World Cup losing out to Ghana, but has since returned for friendlies with the Super Eagles

Okoye is expected to return to club action for Watford on Sunday afternoon, December 11, 2022, as they face Hull City FC in the English Championship.
