Just In: Super Eagles Goalkeeper Nwabali Leaves Chippa United
Super Eagles goalkeeper Stanley Nwabali has parted ways with South African club Chippa United after four years at the club.
Chippa United confirmed the development on Thursday, bringing an end to Nwabali’s stint with the Chilli Boys, where he established himself as one of the team’s key players and earned wider recognition on the international stage.
Nwabali joined Chippa United in 2020 and grew into the club’s first-choice goalkeeper, delivering a series of impressive performances in the South African Premiership. His consistency at club level played a major role in his emergence as Nigeria’s first-choice goalkeeper, particularly during the Super Eagles’ recent international campaigns.
The club, in a statement, thanked the Nigerian international for his service and commitment, wishing him success in the next phase of his career. Details surrounding the terms of his departure and his next destination were not disclosed.
Nwabali’s exit has sparked speculation about a potential move to a bigger club, with his stock having risen following strong performances for the Super Eagles, especially at the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations.
