Former Kaizer Chiefs target Stanley Nwabali advised on potential move abroad - 'He has to decide what he wants from his life'

Nigeria goalkeeper Stanley Nwabali has proved his worth at both the club level and international assignments.

His exploits at Chippa United caught the attention of Kaizer Chiefs, who needed a keeper at the beginning of the 2024/25 season, but things didn't work in their favour.

Nevertheless, the 29-year-old has been delivering on the pitch for the Chilli Boys and the Super Eagles.

Nwabali has been tipped to leave Chippa United in the ongoing transfer window in search of a new challenge.

Reports indicate that teams from the English Championship and Saudi Pro League are targeting the services of the goalkeeper.

Former Nigeria international Ike Shorunmu has given Nwabali a piece of advice ahead of his potential move.

“Ultimately, it is up to Stanley to decide what he wants from his life and his football career," he told Footy Africa.

"He is a fantastic goalkeeper with the quality to succeed anywhere.

“It’s a new environment, different from what he’s used to in South Africa. The club clearly believes in him, and it is now up to Stanley to prove himself again," Shorunmu concluded.

At 29, Nwabali is at his peak and should get a top team to help him retain his position for the Super Eagles.

However, a wrong move might negatively impact him, meaning he has to be careful with his next move, be it in Mzansi or abroad.
