Given his standout performances at AFCON 2023, where the Super Eagles reached the final, many anticipated Nwabali would have secured a transfer by now. His impressive displays, particularly his crucial penalty saves in the semi-final against South Africa, positioned him as a future star in Nigerian football.
Since the retirement of the legendary Vincent Enyeama, Nigeria has struggled to find a dependable goalkeeper, making Nwabali’s rise even more noteworthy. His strong performances at the Africa Cup of Nations and his confident presence at the back earned him considerable attention from various clubs.
Chippa United’s goalkeeper coach, Sean Louw, had expected Nwabali to leave the club this summer, revealing that the keeper had received over a dozen verbal offers. “While I can’t confirm the exact number of written offers, he has received around 10 to 12 verbal ones. He is not expected to return to Chippa next season,” Louw stated.

The Chippa United owner also confirmed ongoing discussions with international clubs, emphasizing that Nwabali deserved a bigger opportunity following his AFCON performance. Reports indicated interest from teams in Saudi Arabia, Belgium, and England, including Al-Ettifaq, Queens Park Rangers, and Union Saint-Gilloise.
However, with only a month remaining before the start of the 2024/25 PSL season, Nwabali may have to remain at Chippa United due to the absence of concrete offers.
