• Chippa United are reportedly interested in replacing Stanley Nwabali with a Ghana international
• The Nigerian goalkeeper could leave the Premier Soccer League side for a new club this summer
• The Super Eagles goalie has attracted interest from the Saudi Pro League and the Championship

Chippa United are reportedly making plans for life without Super Eagles goalkeeper, Stanley Nwabali, setting their sights on Ghanaian international, Richard Ofori.

Nwabali has been linked with a move away from the Premier Soccer League side after his excellent performance for Nigeria at the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations in Ivory Coast.

The former Enyimba FC star is said to have attracted interest from Saudi Pro League giants, Al-Ettifaq, as well as English Championship club, Queens Park Rangers.

There were also reports about interest in Nwabali from Belgian Pro League side, Union Saint-Gilloise.

According to a report by All Nigeria Soccer, the Super Eagles star is expected to leave the Chilli Boys at the end of the season while Ofori's current deal with Orlando Pirates expires in June.

Chippa United are reportedly hoping to land the Ghanaian international on a free transfer despite the Bucs' willingness to offer him a new contract.

The Chilli Boys' hopes of landing Ofori could be cut short if the Black Stars goalkeeper agrees to stay with the Soweto giants.

Nwabali had an impressive outing at the AFCON in Ivory Coast, as the Super Eagles claimed a silver medal after a loss in the final to the host nation.
