C# Selenium Function to take user input and click on xpath text containing " "?

I am writing a function that is supposed to take in a string, and click on the html element containing text matching the string.

But in some cases, the element's text contains the special characters &nbsp, and my function fails to find the element.

I posted my current solution below which I found in another post, but this does not work either. I've also tried normalize-space, but that only works for space characters, and not &nbsp

        public static void ClickOnItem(string itemName)
        {
            IWebElement target = BrowserUtility.FindElement(By.XPath(String.Format("//div[translate(.,'\u00A0','')='{0}']",itemName)));
            TestUtility.ClickElement(target);
        }

The HTML element I am trying to click on looks like this:

<div>Foo&nbsp;Doo&nbsp;Item</div>

Ideally, the user would pass 'Foo Doo Item' into the function, and the function would click on the div element.

Any help on if this is possible would be greatly appreciated.
