Chiamaka Nnadozie Nominated for WSL Player of the Month

Brighton & Hove Albion’s new goalkeeper, Chiamaka Nnadozie, has been shortlisted for the PFA Women’s Super League (WSL) Fans’ Player of the Month award for September a remarkable achievement in her first season in England.

The 24-year-old Nigerian international, who joined Brighton on a free transfer from Paris FC during the summer, has quickly made her mark as one of the standout players in the league. Her agility, quick reflexes, and command of the goalpost have been key to Brighton’s promising start to the campaign.

In her first five WSL appearances, Nnadozie has already kept two clean sheets, a feat that reflects her consistency and composure under pressure. Her sharp saves have helped Brighton earn seven points from their opening five matches, giving fans a renewed sense of confidence in the team’s defensive strength.

Reports reveal that Nnadozie made an impressive 16 saves in just four games — one of the highest figures in the league for September. Her impact was immediate; she was named Player of the Match on her WSL debut against Aston Villa, a performance that caught the attention of fans and analysts alike.

The Nigerian shot-stopper now faces stiff competition for the monthly honour. Other nominees include Chelsea’s Aggie Beever-Jones, Manchester United’s Melvine Malard, Arsenal’s Alessia Russo, Manchester City’s Khadija “Bunny” Shaw, and Tottenham Hotspur’s Cathinka Tandberg.

Fans can support Nnadozie by casting their votes on the official PFA Fans’ Player of the Month platform before the deadline.

Nnadozie’s nomination is not just a personal milestone but also another proud moment for Nigerian football, as she continues to fly the country’s flag high on the global stage. Her journey from Rivers Angels to Paris, and now Brighton, is a testament to her growth, determination, and world-class talent.
