Chiamaka Nnadozie, goalkeeper for Nigeria's Super Falcons, has been recognized as the 2024 CAF Women's Goalkeeper of the Year. This award solidifies her position among the leading goalkeepers in international football, following her previous win in 2023.

In the previous year, Nnadozie, who plays for Paris FC in France, triumphed over notable competitors, including Moroccan goalkeeper Khadija El-Rmichi and South Africa’s Andile Olaminii.

She received this prestigious recognition during a grand ceremony held in Marrakech, Morocco, on Monday night, following an outstanding year marked by her consistent, match-winning performances at both club and international levels.

Nnadozie was instrumental in Nigeria’s successful campaign during the 2024 Women’s Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers and played a key role in Paris FC’s remarkable journey in the UEFA Women’s Champions League, where her exceptional skills in penalty shootouts garnered international praise.

In her acceptance speech, Nnadozie expressed her gratitude, stating, “This is for every young girl who dares to dream. I am honoured to represent Nigeria and Africa on this stage. This award is a testament to hard work, resilience, and the incredible support I’ve received from my teammates and coaches.”

The Nigeria Football Federation has also extended its congratulations to Nnadozie for this remarkable achievement.
