Super Eagles No 1 goalkeeper Stanley Nwabali is not likely to return to the South African PSL after he quit Chippa United as he does not have a place at the Top 3 clubs there.

South Africa goalkeeping legend Motsoeneng Tshepo said: “If he wants to move to one of the top three teams, where do you think he might go? Kaizer Chiefs have Brandon Petersen, and he is showing this season that he is the right person for the role.

“At Orlando Pirates, there’s Sipho Chaine, who is winning trophies and wants to be included in the Bafana Bafana World Cup team, but he’s behind Ricardo Goss.

“At Mamelodi Sundowns, they have the country’s top player, Ronwen Williams.

“Remember, you sign a foreign goalkeeper to be the number one, but now when you bring him to Sundowns, what happens to Ronwen? Where will he work alongside the top three? They have no space for Nwabali.” 

Motsoeneng said he believes that Nwabali quit Chippa United on the advice of an agent who promised him another club, but he does not believe the Super Eagles goalkeeper has now grown past the PSL.

“I don’t think Nwabali has moved beyond the PSL. Chippa are trying to avoid being relegated, and for Nwabali, he had to show at Chippa without any clear doubt that he had grown beyond the PSL.

“He first has to be a really great goalkeeper in the PSL to move past it.

“Since the start of this season, Nwabali’s performance hasn’t been up to the standard it should be.

“After returning from the AFCON in Morocco, maybe he thought he would get a new opportunity from another team, but that didn’t happen.”

Nwabali himself has said he did not agree with any club before he quit Chippa United with six months left on his contract.
