Nwabali Will Join New Club In Summer — Etafia

Former Super Eagles goalkeeper Greg Etafia has revealed that Stanley Nwabali will join a new club this summer.

Nwabali parted ways with South African club Chippa United in February after mutually agreeing to terminate his contract.

The 29-year-old has yet to secure a move to a new club.

Etafia On Nwabali
“When I spoke to him, he told me he had a lot of offers when AFCON was on, he needed to go, but there is no agreement within the club,” Etafia told Brila.

“He came, felt like he needed to play or go. Don’t forget, Dumisani Msibi was doing well in his absence. At the same time, he decided what he wanted, the club and him came to an agreement, and he moved on. Right now, he has a lot of offers and is waiting for the season to end.”

Nwabali was left out of Super Eagles’ recent friendlies against Iran and Jordan due to his inactivity at club level.

“He is doing fine. He wanted to keep fit, thinking about the camp because he isn’t among the invitees. The three goalkeepers that were invited are playing at their clubs. But Nwabali has really contributed for Nigeria, I feel he could have been with them in camp,” Etafia said.

“Sometime ago, they did that too with Ademola Lookman, even when he was having issues with Atalanta.”
