Super Eagles' emerging top goalkeeper, Stanley Nwabali, has received the clearance to participate in Nigeria's upcoming international friendly matches against Ghana's Black Stars and Mali. The 2013 Africa Cup of Nations champions are scheduled to face Ghana and Mali on March 22nd and 26th in Marrakech, Morocco.
Having established himself as a pivotal goalkeeper during the recent 2023 AFCON, Nwabali has secured a spot in the 26-man squad list for the Super Eagles. Despite concerns arising from his withdrawal in the PSL clash against Mamelodi Sundowns, creating uncertainties about his availability, reports suggest a positive outlook. Nwabali, known for swift recoveries, is anticipated to be fit for the impending friendly matches.
Contrary to initial worries, recent updates indicate that the injury to the Chippa United goalkeeper is not severe, raising expectations of a timely recovery for the matches.
Addressing the concerns directly, Nwabali took to his social media, expressing optimism and determination. On his X (formerly Twitter) page, he wrote, "Hope and confidence. It takes just one star to pierce a universe of darkness. We don’t give up here," dismissing concerns about his fitness.
In the realm of transfers, Nwabali has become the subject of interest from Queens Park Rangers and Al-Ettifaq. Both clubs are reportedly considering a potential move, presenting an opportunity for the Nigerian goalkeeper to transition from his current South African club.
