Super Falcons goalkeeper, Chiamaka Nnadozie, has expressed her joy after being named CAF Women’s Goalkeeper of the Year for a remarkable third consecutive time.

The 24-year-old emerged victorious over Morocco’s Khadija Er-Rmichi and South Africa’s Andile Dlamini to claim the prestigious individual award.

Nnadozie first won the inaugural accolade in 2023 and successfully retained it last year.

Reflecting on the achievement, the shot-stopper highlighted its significance for her career.

“Winning this award for the third time is huge for my career. I thank all the academies that I have played for.”

The latest recognition further cements Nnadozie’s reputation as Africa’s top goalkeeper, adding to her earlier accolade as best goalkeeper at the 2024 Women’s Africa Cup of Nations in Morocco.
