Nwabali linked with Kaizer Chiefs

Sports Brief earlier reported that Stanley Nwabali was barely known before the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations, where he made his name with Nigeria.

Chippa United's goalkeeping coach recently disclosed that the Super Eagles star wanted a move to Kaizer Chiefs, and his childhood dream was to play for Amakhosi.

The 27-year-old has arguably been the second-best goalkeeper in South Africa in the last two years behind Mamelodi Sundowns star Ronwen Williams.
