Super Eagles first choice goalie, Stanley Nwabali could be headed to another South African club, Kaizer Chiefs to play next season.
Nwabali’s likely destination was revealed by teammate and friend, Sean Louw who is the Chippa United second choice goalkeeper.
Recall that Nwabali contributed immensely to Nigeria’s second-place finish at the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations in Cote d’Ivoire.
Nwabali has refused to renew his contract at Chippa a decision which gives room for speculation he would leave at the end of the season.
Apart from Kaziers Chiefs, Nwabali has got offers from the Saudi Pro League.
However, Louw revealed that his teammate was only keen on a move to Kaizer Chiefs before the AFCON.
“Like I said to you, between you and me his childhood dream was to always play for Kaizer Chiefs, but even me, my childhood dream was to play for Kaizer Chiefs, I don’t blame him,” he was quoted by sabcsport.
“In the beginning of this season he wanted to play for Kaizer Chiefs, but I said to him before you speak to Kaizer Chiefs, first go to Afcon because you will win the Afcon and you will be so much more worth than at Kaizer Chiefs with all due respect.”
Nwabali has played a total of 27 matches in all competitions this season, conceding 26 goals and kept 11 clean sheets.
