Club Brugge’s Okereke targets first Champions League goal against Real Madrid

Club Brugge forward David Okereke is aiming to open his Uefa Champions League goal account against Real Madrid.

Despite his impressive scoring run for the Blue-Black in Belgium’s elite division, the 22-year-old is yet to find the net in Europe’s elite club competition.

Against Galatasaray, he was on parade for 60 minutes but could not prevent the Super Lig giants from leaving Jan Breydel Stadium with a point, as the encounter ended 0-0.

Having made Philippe Clement’s squad for Tuesday’s encounter against Zinedine Zidane’s men, the Nigerian youth international is already looking forward to the game while hoping to break his Champions League duck in Spain.
