Chippa United and Nigeria goalkeeper Stanley Nwabali has confessed that he actually needs to play for Kaizer Chiefs.

Nwabali was closely linked with a doable transfer to Chiefs in direction of the top of the season and earlier than the brand new marketing campaign.

This was after his stellar performances for Nigeria on the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) event earlier this 12 months.

However, Chiefs instead went for Rwanda international goalkeeper Fiacre Ntwari whom they signed from TS Galaxy.

Now, Nwabali admitted that whereas he wouldn’t say he supported Chiefs, his need is to play for them.

Nonetheless, Nwabali believes Ntwari is doing effectively for Chiefs since becoming a member of them from the Rockets.

The 25-year-old has featured in eight aggressive matches for Chiefs this season and saved a single cleansheet.

In these eight matches, Ntwari has conceded a whopping 10 targets, together with seven within the league.

KAIZER CHIEFS INTEREST STANLEY NWABALI

“To be honest, Kaizer Chiefs is one of the clubs I really want to play for. This is the club I want to play for in South Africa. Kaizer Chiefs are one of the teams I want to play for, with all my heart,” stated Nwabali on Sports Night Amplified on Metro FM as per The Citizen.

“I won’t say I have been supporting them but this is the club I felt like I want to play for,” added the Super Eagles goalkeeper.

“Yeah, and I’m not speaking about now. Even earlier than the brand new coach got here in [I wanted to join Chiefs].

To be fairly sincere, the Rwanda man (Fiacre Ntwari) is doing effectively with the membership, I wouldn’t take that away from him,” added Nwabali.
