Cardi B and Nigerian goalkeeper Maduka Okoye have been spotted together for the third time, this time in Italy.
Their latest sighting came hours before Okoye’s Udinese match against Venezia in the Coppa Italia.
The repeated appearances have fuelled dating speculation, but neither Cardi B nor Okoye has confirmed that they are romantically involved.
American rapper Cardi B and Nigerian goalkeeper Maduka Okoye were filmed together in Italy on September 3, marking their third public sighting together and further fuelling ongoing dating speculation between the pair.
The pair were seen casually interacting hours before Okoye’s club side, Udinese, came from behind to beat Venezia 2-1 in the Coppa Italia round of 32. Fans quickly picked up on the timing, noting that Cardi appeared to be in Italy specifically around his match schedule once again.
This marks the third time the two have been spotted together since rumours first began in July. Their first public appearance came at the Jean Paul Gaultier Fall/Winter 2026 Haute Couture show during Paris Fashion Week, where the pair sat next to each other and were later seen chatting on a balcony at a private event.
Days later, they were seen together again at a waterfront dinner in Venice, where Cardi reportedly described Okoye as “really sweet and very kind” while dining with a group of friends.
Despite the repeated sightings, neither Cardi B nor Okoye has confirmed a romantic relationship, with each outing so far involving other people rather than the two of them alone. Still, the pattern of repeated appearances across three different Italian and French cities has kept online speculation alive, with fans continuing to debate the nature of their relationship.
Okoye, who plays as a goalkeeper for Udinese and the Nigerian national team, was born in Düsseldorf to a Nigerian father and a German mother. Beyond his football career, he has increasingly drawn attention off the pitch this year, including appearances at the Paris Fashion Week shows and the F1 British Grand Prix, alongside the ongoing rumours involving Cardi B.
For now, both parties appear to be continuing with their public outings without addressing the speculation directly, leaving fans to keep drawing their own conclusions each time the two are seen together.
