Highly-rated Nigerian goalkeeper, Chiamaka Nnadozie, has been nominated for the Best Goalkeeper Award in the French women’s league.
Nnadozie, who has been outstanding for her club, Paris FC, this season, will be competing with PSG’s Katarzyna Kiedrzynek and Christiane Endler of Olympic Lyon for the award.
The 22-year-old, who is Africa’s inaugural Best Women’s Goalkeeper of the Year 2023 was also nominated for the same award last season but was unable to clinch it.
