The South African Super League team, technical officials are exhaling with relief after Stanley Nwabali revealed he is open to staying longer at Chippa United.
After playing brilliantly for the Super Eagles at the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations, the 27-year-old has been linked to leaving the South African team.
The shot stopper is apparently being pursued by Union St. Gilloise of the Belgian Pro League and the formidable Kaizer Chiefs of South Africa.
Nwabali has been connected to a transfer to Kaizer Chiefs, as Amakhosi searches for a trustworthy Itumeleng Khune replacement, who is set to leave soon.
“You see when you play under an understanding chairman, everything comes – confidence comes… Imagine you’re playing under a chairman who wants all his players to be comfortable, you must work for this man, even when you’re in or out of the team,” Nwabali was quoted as saying by SABC Sport
“To be honest, I really wish to play one or two more years with him – I really wish this. If it’s his wish [too], fine, but I really wish [to stay] because he’s a nice man.
“He wished me well in the Afcon, so I really want to show him this love by staying longer. But if it’s the end of my time with the club at the end of this season, so be it,” he added.
