Slavia Prague defender Igoh Ogbu has disclosed that playing against tough strikers like Olivier Giroud, Romelu Lukaku, and Omar Marmoush has made him a better defender.

Recall that Ogbu battled Giroud in the team’s 3-1 loss to AC Milan in the Europa League.

He also played against former Roma striker Lukaku before facing Eintracht Frankfurt’s Marmoush.

In a chat with TribalFootball, Ogbu stated that he’s not afraid of any striker in the world.

“Playing against Giroud, Lukaku, and Marmoush can be described as a good experience for me, a great thing.

“Lukaku is a very strong striker, Olivier Giroud, and Marmoush as well, who everybody knows; the experience is there. I wasn’t stressed at all,” Ogbu revealed.

“After playing against Lukaku, I think I don’t have any fear against any striker,” he added.
