Nigeria PSL Star Makes World Cup Claim Ahead Of Bafana Clash
Chippa United Nigeria n shot-stopper has a made big 2026 FIFA World Cup claim ahead of their clash against Bafana Bafana .
Chippa United’s Stanley Nwabali has made a big claim regarding the 2026 FIFA World Cup ahead of Nigeria’s crunch competition qualifier against Bafana Bafana on Friday.Not many outside of the South African football fraternity will have heard of the 27-year-old shot-stopper prior to the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations.
His recall came at a time when there was uncertainty surrounding the goalkeeping position as problems are believed to have ensued with previous keepers Francis Uzoho and Maduka Okoye.Following a friendly appearance against Guinea prior to the tournament, Peseiro made Nwabali his first choice in goal and the Chilli Boy shone in Ivory Coast on route to the AFCON final.
It was his first major tournament at international level, and ahead of Nigeria’s crucial World Cup qualifier against Hugo Broos’ charges, Nwabali claims he is keen to experience the atmosphere of the global showpiece which will be held in the United States of America, Canada and Mexico."To be honest, I really wish to play at the World Cup because I enjoyed the atmosphere at the AFCON," Nwabali told the media of the Nigerian Football Federation.
"So I really want to test the World Cup also. I’ve only watched it from behind years ago, but I really want to be part of the team going to the World Cup."For 14 free days, you can have access to the best from Soccer Laduma, KickOff, Daily Sun, TrueLove and Drum.
