Kaizer Chiefs Select Nwabali as Their R30 Million Star Goalkeeper Target.

Because of Chippa United’s hefty asking price, Kaizer Chiefs have lost interest in Stanley Nwabali.

Kaizer Chiefs is Unwilling to Go That Far for Nwabali

Stanley Nwabali, the goalie for Chippa and Nigriak, is a target for Soweto Rivals Chiefs and Pirates, according to SoccerLaduma. If you excuse the pun, the 27-year-old was a surprise addition to the Super Eagles for the Afcon, but he made the most of the chance. With seven appearances at the championship game and four clean sheets, he was a constant presence for the eventual runners-up. The outstanding goalkeeper has an R30 million price tag attached by Chippa.

It’s no secret that Chiefs have been evaluating their alternatives in hopes of signing a goalkeeper for the upcoming campaign. The team has been keeping an eye on a few players, including Stanley Nwabali. Similar to how they courted Daniel Akpeyi a few seasons prior, they had intended to do the same with him.

However, there appears to be a problem because Chippa is trying to profit from Nwabali, the player. He excelled greatly at Afcon. They value him highly. The club is asking for about R30 million for him, and few teams, particularly in South Africa, will be able to afford him at that price. The good news for the Chiefs is that Brandon Petersen is in the waiting line for his opportunity, and Bruce Bvuma has been playing well lately. According to the source, “both players recently signed contract extensions, and Chiefs may decide to look for someone who will be a backup in their goalkeeper search—a youngster.”

Global Interests?

Additionally, reports have indicated that QPR of the English Championship and Al-Ettifaq of the Saudi Pro League have made bids. It is believed that the two main obstacles for Chiefs are knowledge of this desire and the exorbitant cost of Nwabali.

Kaizer Chiefs Must Compete With Mokwana

Meanwhile, iDiski Times said that Elias Mokwana, Babina Noko’s crown jewel, would require R35 million to be taken from Sekhukhune.

“Bafana Bafana and Sekhukhune United winger Elias Mokwana, who said his R35 million price tag is not of his concern, envisaged this rise while in the ABC Motsepe League.”

Sekhukhune’s top management is allegedly prepared to take a tough stance. Sundowns and other higher bidders may become interested as a result of this.
