Super Eagles goalkeeper Stanley Nwabali is set to leave Chippa United following his impressive performances at the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations.

The 27-year-old Chippa United shot-stopper, already linked with a move to South African giants Kaizer Chiefs, is now attracting interest from France and Saudi Arabia, according to his agent, Mohammed Lawal.

Nwabali, previously overshadowed by Francis Uzoho, earned coach Jose Peseiro’s trust and seized the starting role at the AFCON. From then, he went on to have an impressive record of just two goals conceded in six matches.

Nwabali has been instrumental in the Super Eagles’ push towards their first continental title since 2013.

“There is interest in France and Saudi Arabia. There is no surprise because of his performance during the Afcon tournament in Ivory Coast,” Lawal said as quoted by SNL24.

“I have only seen [Kaizer Chiefs links] in newspapers. I cannot comment on anything regarding local interest, please speak to the chairman of the club.”
