Chippa United is reportedly eyeing a move for Black Stars of Ghana goalkeeper, Richard Ofori, as a potential replacement for Stanley Nwabali amid ongoing speculation about Nwabali’s future with the club.
Nwabali, who has been consistently linked with a departure from Chippa United, garnered attention for his impressive performances with Nigeria’s Super Eagles during the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations.
Clubs such as Saudi club El-Ettifaq and Sky Bet Championship outfit Queens Park Rangers have been linked with Nwabali, heightening the uncertainty surrounding his future. With this in mind, Chippa United is said to be targeting Ofori as a contingency plan should Nwabali depart at the end of the season.
Ofori, whose contract with South African club Orlando Pirates is set to expire this summer, presents an attractive option for Chippa United.
The goalkeeper’s experience and skill make him a desirable candidate to fill any potential void left by Nwabali’s departure.
According to reports, Chippa United has identified Ofori as a suitable replacement, signaling their intention to secure his services ahead of the upcoming transfer window.
