Chippa United confirmed the departure earlier today, stating that Nwabali had formally requested to leave the club, and after careful consideration, the request was granted by mutual consent.
During his tenure since joining in 2022, Nwabali made 76 appearances for the Eastern Cape-based side, keeping an impressive 25 clean sheets and establishing himself as one of the PSL’s reliable goalkeepers.
