BREAKING: Super Eagles goalie, Nwabali exits Chippa United

Published

on

Stanley Nwabali has left South African club Chippa United after spending four years with the side.

The club confirmed the Super Eagles goalkeeper’s departure in a statement issued on Thursday.

According to Chippa United, Nwabali requested to leave the club, even though the 29-year-old had signed a three-year contract extension in 2024.

The club said it “has agreed to grant his [Nwabali] release” and wished him well as he moves on to the next phase of his football career.

“We would like to sincerely thank Stanley Nwabali for the years of service, commitment, and professionalism he has shown during his time at Chippa United Football Club. His contribution to the club will always be appreciated,” the club writes.

Chippa did not reveal if Nwabali has moved to another club or will be a free agent.

Nwabali, himself, remains silent on his next move.

However, there are reports that the goalkeeper has been linked with moves to other clubs in the South African Premier Soccer League (PSL) and also in Europe and Saudi Arabia.

Nwabali joined Chippa United from Katsina United in the Nigeria Premier Football League (NPFL) in 2022. He played over 70 games for the club and became the captain in 2024.

During his spell with Chippa, he became the Eagles number one goalkeeper following an impressive performance at the Africa Cup of Nations in Cote d’Ivoire.
