SUPER Eagles of Nigeria goalkeeper Stanley Nwabali has caught the attention of clubs in the Saudi Arabia Professional League and the English Championship, according to reports.
The 27-year-old Nwabali emerged as one of the best goalkeepers at the AFCON 2023 Africa Cup of Nations in January and February as the Super Eagles reached the final in Cote d’Ivoire.
Nwabali kept four clean sheets and conceded only four goals in seven matches, and also saved two penalties in the shootout in the semi-final victory over South Africa.
Currently with Chippa United in the South African top flight, Nwabali seems destined for a move at the end of the season.
European transfer expert Fabrizio Romano reported today that the former Enyimba and Katsina United goalkeeper has attracted the interest of Al Ettifaq in Saudi Arabia and Queens Park Rangers in England.
According to Romano, Nwabali is ‘on the list of different clubs as Al Ettifaq in Saudi and Queens Park Rangers in UK have enquired about him’.
Chippa United, who gave Nwabali a hero’s welcome upon his return from AFCON, are expected to consider the offers in the coming months.
