Raja Casablanca eye Super Eagles Goalkeeper, Stanley Nwabali
Quick Read
With the new league season approaching, the Moroccan giants are working hard behind the scenes to finalize new signings and make a strong comeback.
Super Eagles goalkeeper Stanley Nwabali has attracted serious interest from Moroccan top-flight club Raja Casablanca.
According to reports, the Moroccan side is preparing to open talks with Nwabali’s current club, Chippa United of South Africa, sometime this week.
Raja Casablanca is said to be very keen on signing the Nigerian shot-stopper as part of their efforts to strengthen their squad ahead of the new season.
Nwabali, who is 29 years old, has built a strong reputation in recent years thanks to his consistent and impressive performances, both at the club level and with the Nigerian national team.
His market value is currently estimated at around €650,000, as listed by football statistics website Transfermarkt.
The talented goalkeeper still has two years left on his contract with Chippa United, a team he joined after previous spells with Nigerian clubs such as Katsina United and Enyimba.
His performances during international tournaments, especially during the Africa Cup of Nations, have significantly increased his visibility and demand across Africa and beyond.
Raja Casablanca, one of the most successful and popular clubs in North Africa, is looking to rebuild and improve its team after a disappointing campaign in the Moroccan Botola Pro League last season.
The club finished in fifth place, far below expectations for a side with such a rich history and high ambitions.
Club officials are hoping that bringing in a reliable and experienced goalkeeper like Nwabali will help solve one of the key problems the team faced last season defensive instability.
With the new league season approaching, the Moroccan giants are working hard behind the scenes to finalize new signings and make a strong comeback.
If the deal goes through, it would mark a significant step in Nwabali’s career, potentially giving him exposure to more competitive football and a bigger platform in African club competitions like the CAF Champions League.
More updates are expected in the coming days as discussions between Raja Casablanca and Chippa United progress.
