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.
Cristiano Ronaldo speaks on his son’s future and football career after watching his training sessions.
He spoke about his 16-year-old son “He’s a good kid. Honest, a good kid. The others are tougher. The ones I have at home, the younger ones. This one is no problem. The others…”
“When I was his age, he was a bit bigger and stronger. I was smaller. I believe he will be bigger than me in size. The hunger is the most challenging aspect.”
Footballers João Pedro and Moisés Caicedo have shared their thoughts on the recent transfer of former Brighton player Danny Welbeck.
It can be noted that Welbeck recently completed a move to Stamford Bridge. Pedro shared “This will mark the third occasion we have played together, and I believe, just as he did for me previously, he will extend his support to everyone in the squad. Danny embodies that spirit; he is incredibly helpful and genuinely wishes the best for everyone around him and for the team.
“It is well-known that he is an exceptional player. I am eager to play alongside him once more, and I believe he will be a tremendous asset to our group.”
Real Madrid player Vinícius Júnior has spoken about his contract and how things have been since discussions began.
He said “It’s gone very well, meeting the new coach and the new players and training very hard. Mourinho wants me to be as I’ve always been: happy, cheerful, and that I play my football.”
“We have to prepare physically so that during the season we have fewer injuries and we can count on everybody. Monday was a double session, Tuesday is one session. So let’s go. Today we did a bit of work in the gym and a short session to load our legs some more.”
