Nnadozie Wins Back-to-Back with Best Goalkeeper Award at CAF Awards 2024
Chiamaka Nnadozie is brimming with joy after being named the Best Goalkeeper in Africa at the 2024 CAF Awards.
This marks the second consecutive year that the Super Falcons star has clinched the prestigious title, having first earned the honor in 2023.
At just 24 years old, Nnadozie has carved out an impressive reputation as one of the continent’s top shot-stoppers.
Nnadozie’s year has been nothing short of remarkable.
As the first-choice goalkeeper for Paris FC, she played a pivotal role in helping her team secure qualification for the UEFA Women’s Champions League.
Competing at such a high level in Europe’s elite women’s tournament further cemented her status as a top-tier goalkeeper.
She was a standout performer for the Nigerian national team, the Super Falcons, delivering incredible saves and displays of leadership during the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris.
In her acceptance speech at the CAF Awards ceremony, Nnadozie expressed deep gratitude and humility.
“I was here last year, and I’m incredibly grateful to be here again.
I want to thank God for making this possible,” she said, acknowledging the support she’s received along her journey.
She didn’t forget to credit the key figures behind her success.
“A big thank you to the CAF President and the Nigerian Football President for their continuous efforts in promoting women’s football.
I’m also grateful to my club, Paris FC, for believing in me and investing in my growth,” she shared.
Manchester United have released a list of players who are expected to leave the club during the summer transfer window.
A statement from the club listed the players as Jadon Sancho, Casemiro, Tyrell Malacia, Sonny Aljofree, James Bailey, and Malachi Sharpe.
It was noted that Casemiro enjoyed a strong season at the club and built an excellent reputation during his time with the team.
Meanwhile, Tyrell Malacia made 50 first-team appearances for Manchester United during his spell at the club.
Liverpool have released a list of players who are confirmed to leave the club this summer.
The list includes star players Mohamed Salah, Andy Robertson, and Ibrahima Konaté. While some players are leaving, others have been offered new contracts.
The players who have been offered fresh terms include Kyle Kelly, Afolami Onanuga, Oliver O’Connor, Lucas Pitt, Ben Trueman, Matthew Wright, Prince Cisse, and Keyrol Figueroa.
Nigerian striker Victor Osimhen has urged Ademola Lookman to consider a move to Galatasaray.
It can be noted that Lookman recently completed a transfer to Atlético Madrid, and since then, many European clubs have shown interest in the player.
Osimhen then shared an encouraging message to the player, stating that he would be welcome at Galatasaray.
“We are waiting for you at Galatasaray. Come and be a part of this family.”
